new portrait: Anna Sanchez / by Toni Ricart

annaSanchez.jpg

Anna Sanchez is trained in classical ballet, jazz, and contemporary techniques (Graham and Limon). Her style combines technique, expression, and changes in energy, creating a free and dynamic movement quality. In her work, a glance or small gesture is just as important as a difficult turn, a leap, or a fall to the ground.
From 1985 to 1990 she was artistic director of the Anna Sanchez Dance Company. Currently she directs the Inconnexa dance company, founded in 2002, and she has directed Varium dance school in Barcelona since 1987.
From 2000-2010 she was Artistic Director of the International Dance Festival “Dancing Sant Cugat”.
