AI DO PROJECT:
In 2009, out of the need to find a choreographic language that could satisfy specific choreographic concerns, AI DO PROJECT was created with the support of the Basque Country Government. AI DO PROJECT merges together contemporary dance and Aikido to create a unique style and way of approaching movement.
AI DO PROJECT integrates the production of new contemporary dance works whilst teaching technical classes, workshops and repertoire to students and professional dancers in several countries, such as: Anton Bruckner Privatuniversität (Linz, Austria), Institut del Teatre (Barcelona, Spain), CSDMA Dance Conservatoire (Madrid, Spain), SEEDS (Girona, Spain), LaCantera (México DF), Academia de la Danza Mexicana (Mexico DF), CODARTS (Rotterdam, Netherlands) and Folkwang (Essen, Germany).
