Ramasar joined the NYCB as an apprentice in 2000 and joined the corps de ballet in 2001. As of 2010, Ramasar remained the only person of color who was a principal in NYCB. In 2018, Ramasar was fired from NYCB for sharing explicit pictures of female dancers without their knowledge or consent. In 2019, he made his debut at the Teatro dell'Opera in Rome. That same year, a union arbitrator ruled that, while suspension from NYCB was fitting, his firing was too severe a punishment.

Education and early career Amar Ramasar was born in the Bronx, New York City. His father, who is of Indo-Trinidadian descent, is a former United States Marine who worked as a computer technician while Ramasar was growing up. His mother, who is Puer ...
