Scott Elliott graduated from the Boston Conservatory in ’91 with a Bachelor in Dance and Theater Performance and a minor in Music. While in Boston he danced professionally with a Latin American company until he moved to Dayton Ohio to be a soloist with the Dayton Ballet. There he danced for 4 years, staring in major roles such as Surprise Symphony, Carmena Burana, The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, Merlin and Mozart Charades. While a soloist, he also taught Ballet, Modern and Jazz dance to the second company and the Ballet school.
After having surgery on his knee for the second time, Scott retired from the dance world and went back to school for his Masters in Health and Sport Science from the University of Dayton. Two year later he became a Physical Education teacher in the Dayton Public School system. After bringing Dance and Gymnastics to his school he found interest in starting a competitive team of boys and girls for what he called Cheer-nastics. He then took these 3rd–6th grade athletes to qualify for National Cheerleading Competition in Orlando Florida.
Then he moved back to the Berkshires where his family now resides. Working as the Senior Program Director for YMCA Camp Hi-Rock in Mt. Washington, Scott spent his years directing summer camp and year round programs. During the winter months he danced with Olga Dunn and taught at her school. Soon after being noticed in the community, he performed and worked with Whitney Grey at Berkshire school, where he taught a range of jazz and lyrical movement to students, over two years. The following three years, he lived in central Massachusetts at Camp Frank A. Day where he was the Director of Camping Operations for the West Suburban YMCA in Newton MA.
In 2007, Dance was reintroduced to Scott as he returned to the performing world as Uncle Drosselmyer and the Rat King in the Nutcracker for the Littleton Dance Academy in Littleton CO. Scott continues to dance and perform for the Littleton Dance Academy as well as help the dancers at Cherry Hills Community Church.
