Choreographic workshops

We have already started with the workshops of our project CND Estudio Abierto! A unique experience offered by the National Dance Company composed by a cycle of workshops with our dancers, repeaters and teachers aimed at professionals and non-professionals of dance.

One Sunday a month, our headquarters is filled with love for dance, sharing a privileged space to enjoy it with different groups of people.

So far, we have held two sessions. Our soloist dancer Ana Calderón and one of our ballet master, Catalina Arteaga, started the project with a workshop entitled “You, the music, the space”; an activity designed to learn how to manage movement and become aware of it. Our dancer María Muñoz also made her debut in this section with “The Carnival of the Animals”, a workshop dedicated to children who played with shapes, colors and space, inspiring their movements on those of many animals.

Thank you for your great welcome and for putting so much enthusiasm into this project and for selling out so quickly.

We launch the Mentoring Project

This week we launched theMentoring Project, in which two main dancers from the Company have shared their day-to-day life and their professional experience with two students from the RCPD Mariemma (Mariemma Royal Proffesional Dance School) who are in their final years of training. We wanted to interview them so they could tell us how the experience was like. Lucas López, a 5th grade professional dance student, has had the opportunity to learn from Alessandro Riga, the leading figure of the Company. Julia Ibáñez, a classical ballet student in the 6th grade of professional dance training, has had the opportunity to learn with Cristina Casa, principal dancer of the Company.

Conoce a nuestros bailarines: Anthony Pina

Mi nombre es Anthony Pina y me uní a la CND en septiembre de 2012. Como bailarín, me describiría a mí mismo como agudo y enérgico. Me encanta trabajar rápido y probar el límite de la rapidez con la que puedo moverme mientras sigo trabajando con una técnica limpia. Una de cosas que más me gusta de la danza es que es una experiencia de aprendizaje interminable. Hay tantas formas de abordar la danza y la técnica, ¡y quiero aprenderlas todas!
