Compañía Nacional de Danza

Juan José Carazo began his studies at the Mariemma Royal Professional Conservatory of Dance. In 2011 she participated in the School of American Ballet's summer program and a year later she began working at the American Ballet Theater II. In 2015 he joined the National Dance Company under the artistic direction of José Carlos Martínez. Persistent, constant, hard-working, different and, above all, positive dancer.

Seville-born Álvaro Madrigal is a versatile dancer. He cannot be pigeonholed as a classical dancer or as a contemporary dancer but rather is able to enjoy the full repertoire of the Compañía Nacional de Danza (CND). Álvaro respects classical dance so much that he could easily be considered a classical dancer. But the same could be said regarding contemporary dance also. He himself prefers to be defined as an emotional dancer; somebody who needs to feel something when dancing.

These weeks we received at our headquarters the dancer Joan Sempere, outstanding student of the international summer dance course Valencia Endanza.

Our dancers are participating in the Balance in Flow program that its creator, the dancer and therapist Ivana Saldaña, has brought to our headquarters to contribute to the overall preparation of the company's dancers on a physical, mental and emotional level. using coaching and mindfulness tools. The Program was born in 2009 when Ivana integrated her own experience as a dancer and her own challenges as a student and professional with the knowledge acquired as a health therapist. Since then, Balance in Flow has been expanding. Ivana Saldaña, a pioneer in teaching personal and artistic growth, has been sharing her program for more than a decade with dancers from important companies in the United States, England and Spain. She is a shiatsu therapist, licensed in San Francisco and London and an NLP Master Practitioner.
