He has danced all over the world and in companies as important as that of Sara Baras. Her school is one of the most prestigious in the province of Cadiz.
Antonio de Verónica and Saray Cortés: in 2005, Antonio and Saray coincided working on stage on the island of Tenerife and decided to form – together with La Salinera – their own flamenco dance company. They have shared the stage with Antonio El Pipa, Antonio Canales, La Farruca, Estrella Morente, Farruquito, among others. Their technical and choreographic work is rooted in tradition.
La Piñona: she collaborates with big names in flamenco, touring the world’s most important festivals. She accompanies Manuel Liñán in Reversible; Esperanza Fernández, on her tour De lo jondo y verdadero. She is a restless woman who is always looking for growth and new challenges. She shows her artistic concerns in her own works with which she achieves great success with critics and audiences.
Paula Sierra: at the age of 15, Antonio Canales discovered her in a master class. The bailaor highlighted her spark, her strength, her flamenco, and was the first to encourage her to pursue a career in flamenco dance. Her career at the age of 20 was meteoric.
