Kirven James Boyd began his formal dance training at the Boston Arts Academy and joined Boston Youth Moves in 1999 under the direction of Jim Viera and Jeannette Neill. He also trained on scholarship at the Boston Conservatory and as a fellowship student at The Ailey School. Mr. Boyd has danced with Battleworks Dance Company, The Parsons Dance Company and Ailey II. He performed at the White House tribute to Judith Jamison in 2010. Mr. Boyd joined the Alvin Ailey Company in 2004.
I attended the Boston Arts Academy as a Dance major. Kirven was a class mate of mine and what an breathtakingly talented classmate he was. Always pushing harder and seemingly a step ahead. I am so amazed at the body of work he has unmasked. He is now a headliner on the company's Bill.
