Thorne holds a BFA in dance from State University of NY, Brockport. Guy has over 15 years of professional experience & has toured extensively and taught master classes throughout the world including Italy, Germany, Hawaii, France, the UK & Austria. He has been reviewed favorably on several occasions by the NY Times & has danced in such notable US spaces as the Ted Shawn Theater (Jacob's Pillow), The Lincoln Center & Kennedy Center among others. .... the always impressive Guy Thorne... is all swagger, sexiness and youthful bravado in modern movements. ~Bernard J.Tarver. As co-founder, co-director, choreographer, performer & teacher of FUTURPOINTE DANCE Thorne's current choreographic work explores the confluence of folklore, popular and contemporary dance forms infused with his short film & multi-media creations.
