Welch was initially trained at the dance school run by his parents.[1] In 1989, after a year as a scholarship student at the San Francisco Ballet School,[1] Welch was accepted into the Australian Ballet where he became a leading soloist.[1]
While with The Australian Ballet, Welch developed an interest in choreography and, in 1990, received his first commission.[1] By 1995, he had been appointed a resident choreographer with the Australian Ballet[1] and, in 2003, he was also appointed artistic director of the Houston Ballet.[1]
