Eduardo Guerrero González (Cádiz, 1983) started dancing when he was only six years old at Carmen Guerrero’s school, where he built the foundations of his dance, later moving on to its in-depth development. Alongside teachers of the stature of Mario Maya, Antonio Canales, and Manolo Marín, he studied Spanish Dance at the Cádiz Dance Conservatory and later expanded his knowledge of contemporary and classical dance.
González is joined by one of the top international ballet companies, The National Ballet of Canada, which was founded in 1951 by Celia Franca. Today, the company is among the world’s finest, with 70 dancers and its own orchestra. Renowned for its diverse repertoire, the company performs traditional full-length classics, embraces contemporary work and encourages the creation of new ballets as well as the development of Canadian choreographers.
