Beckanne Sisk began ballet at age five with Longview Ballet Theater before earning a scholarship to The Rock School for Dance Education at thirteen. During her four years there, she won the Jerome Robbins Award (2007) and placed first and third at the Youth America Grand Prix (2007–2010).

At seventeen, Adam Sklute invited her to join Ballet West II after seeing her compete at YAGP. She advanced to Ballet West’s main company in 2011, became a principal in 2015, and joined Houston Ballet as a principal in 2022.

Sisk has performed principal roles in Don Quixote, Romeo and Juliet, Onegin, Giselle, The Sleeping Beauty, and Swan Lake. The Washington Post praised her as “one of the most charming and beguiling ballerinas to embody the role” in The Nutcracker, and Pointe Magazine named her performance in Onegin a Standout Performance of 2019.

She has originated principal roles in works by Nicolo Fonte, Val Caniparoli, Edwaard Liang, and Matthew Neenan and is now an international guest artist.

Beyond ballet, Sisk starred in the CW series Breaking Pointe and appeared in Vogue Mexico. She won the Bronze Medal at the 2012 Beijing International Ballet Competition and received the 2012 Princess Grace Dance Fellowship Award.
