About:
Ronnie "Futuristic Astaire" Willis, is a classically trained, hip hop dancer and choreographer to some of the world's greatest entertainers. He has traveled the world and has worked with the likes of Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Sisqo, Will Smith, Dr. Dre, Brandy, Monica,Tyrese, Toni Braxton and more. He has been dancing for audiences since he was a toddler. Ronnie is also an actor and has appeared on TV shows like “LA Heat” and films like “Strange Days”. As a young child he would study videos of artists who were inspirations to him like, Michael Jackson, Gregory Hines, Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly and many others. By the time he was thirteen, he was training in all the classics of dance at a local dance studio in Washington D.C., the Davis Center. This is where Ronnie was first introduced to the classics and that prepared him for attendance at the prestigious Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington DC. This is where he was fortunate to meet his two mentors, Mike Malone (well known dancer, choreographer and director) and Lloyd Whitmore ( his modern dance teacher),which helped to nurture his talents tremendously. When the prestigious Alvin Ailey Dance Academy came to his high school and auditioned him, he was offered a full scholarship and there he vastly strengthen his classical technique. During his second year there, Ronnie was inspired to move to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of working as a commercial dancer/choreographer and where he would have the opportunity to work in movies, tv, with recording artists, tours and music videos. Ronnie toured with Michael Jackson in 1999 on the “MJ & Friends tour”. He choreographed Sisqo’s “Thong Song” album, served as dance captain on Diana Ross’ “Take me Higher” tour 1995-2000 and has even been a dance coach to artist like Tyrese, actress Gloria Ruben, & model K. D. Aubert.
