Life and career Darren Anderson was born to Gerald Hubert Anderson, a Master Warrant Officer from the Royal Canadian Armed Forces,and Jean Elizabeth Anderson, a gemologist, in Edmonton, Alberta.[4] While growing up, Anderson describes his early exposure as being to hockey, which his family encouraged him to pursue, to follow in the steps of his uncle Norm Ullman, a hockey star who had been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. [5] But Anderson was not interested in hockey; instead he began studying ballet at age 18 at the Alberta Ballet School,[6] and he described himself as immediately "hooked".

At age 19, Anderson was accepted into the National Ballet of Canada and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet summer programs and was given a scholarship to attend the Royal Winnipeg Ballet, where he won a spot in the school's professional division.

He completed the program in 1998 and danced with the company as an Aspirant for one season while continuing his training through private coaching with Dr. Arnold Spohr. 他於 1998 年完成了該計劃,並以 Aspirant 的身份與公司共舞了一個賽季,同時在 Arnold Spohr 博士的私人指導下繼續接受培訓。

He also studied at the American Ballet Theatre's Summer Intensive in New York City.[11]他還曾就讀 於紐約市美國芭蕾舞劇院的夏季密集課程。

Anderson returned Canada to join the Royal Winnipeg Ballet in 2002, where he was Second Soloist with the company,[12] and performed such roles as Uncle Drosselmeyer in "The Nutcracker", the cat in "Puss in Boots", and the dog in "Val Caniparoli's Cinderella". 安德森於 2002 年返回加拿大加入皇家溫尼伯芭蕾舞團,在那裡他是該公司的第二獨舞演員,[12] 並在“胡桃夾子”中扮演德羅塞爾邁爾叔叔、“穿靴子的貓”中的貓以及“瓦爾卡尼帕羅利的灰姑娘”。
