Roylan Ramos studied dance at the National School in Camagüey, his hometown, before joining the National School of Cuba in Havana, from which he graduated in 2006. He then joined the Camagüey Ballet as a soloist for five seasons, before moving to the Cairo Opera Ballet in Egypt in 2011 and, the following year, the Tanz Company of the Tirole Landestheater in Innsbruck, Austria. He has danced in productions including Paquita, Don Quixote and Swan Lake, and expanded his repertoire to include works by more contemporary choreographers upon his arrival at the Lyon Opera Ballet in 2014. A principal dancer with the Oklahoma City Ballet for the 2022–2023 season, Roylan Ramos is now back with the company.
