About

THE WORKSHOP

In dance classes, choreography and technique will be taught. Workshop choreographies are set to various palos (song forms and rhythms). Choreographies are the original work of the artists/teachers, and students learn flamenco through the experience and unique abilities that these master artists/teachers bring to their work.

Workshops consist of six (6) hours of instruction over the course of seven (7) days, June 20-26. Instructors generally do not teach on the day of their scheduled performance. Marta Gálvez will not teach on Friday, June 26.

About

Marta Gálvez

Marta Gálvez (Córdoba, 1994) began flamenco at age three and completed her studies in Danza Española at the Conservatorio Profesional de Danza Luis del Río (2012). During her training she received a Jóvenes Talentos scholarship (Centro Andaluz de Danza, Sevilla) and later moved to Madrid, earning a degree in Pedagogy of Danza Española and Flamenco (Conservatorio Superior de Danza María de Ávila, 2016). Her formation includes work with leading artists and teachers such as Isabel Bayón and Israel Galván, and collaborations with creators including Daniel Doña, Teresa Nieto, Aída Gómez, Antonio Márquez, and Jesús Lozano. In 2015 she received the “Bailarina Sobresaliente” prize at the Certamen Coreográfico del Distrito Tetuán (Madrid), and in 2020 completed a master’s degree in Cultural Management and Leadership.

As a performer, Gálvez has worked with companies and choreographers including María Pagés, Jesús Carmona, Ballet Flamenco de Andalucía (under Úrsula López), Mercedes de Córdoba, José Porcel, David Coria, and Juan Carlos Avecilla, appearing in theatres and festivals internationally and in leading tablaos such as Corral de la Morería (Madrid) and Tablao Flamenco Cordobés (Barcelona). Since 2023 she has focused on her own creations: Número oculto received the Premio Real Teatro Retiro and a third prize at the Bionic contemporary dance festival; her first full-length work, Dama de noche, continues that trajectory.
