The history of Santo Rico dates back to 1995. The name of the dance company is derived from the initial members of the group being half from Santo Domingo (Santo) and half from Puerto Rico (Rico), hence the name "Santo Rico." Santo Rico was initially formed by Wilton Beltre, a Dominican native, who expressed his love for dance by displaying his street style of dancing Mambo/Salsa in local nightclubs in New York City. Prior to forming Santo Rico, Wilton received dancing instruction from the well renowned Eddie Torres. This gave him professionalism, grace and ultimately led to the development of a unique style. During his stint with Mr. Torres Wilton excelled and brought his dancing ability to such a high level that he became one of the most outstanding members of The Eddie Torres Dance Company.

The works features Kelly's vibrant expression, fusing classical dance with modern forms resulting in an arresting lyrical yet earthy quality.

No matter what topic, Kelly reveals provocative and compelling images, with a directness of expression which easily engages the audience.

A idéia de inaugurar uma escola, surgiu quando ao final de cada sessão dos espetáculos do Grupo Catsapá, Mabel Tude e Gisela Saldanha, criadoras da instituição, eram procuradas por dezenas de crianças e adolescentes interessadas naquela arte que fundia o sapateado e a dança com o teatro. A Catsapá pretende desenvolver nos alunos o potencial artístico que exige a versatilidade dos espetáculos musicais e contribuir para o desenvolvimento do auto conhecimento, auto estima e socialização do indivíduo através do ensino artístico.

Nascida em Olinda-PE, Natércia Loureiro cursou ballet clássico dos 4 aos 15 anos, destacando-se o Teatro Municipal de Recife. Radicada no Rio de Janeiro desde 1977, cursou moderno e jazz, com o mestre Nino Giovannetti.
Iniciou os estudos do flamenco na Casa de España em 1994, aprimorando seus estudos com Yuri Ganko e Túlio Cortez. Em agosto de 1998 fez extensivos em Jazz e Tap Dance no programa Steps on Broadway em Nova Yorque. Em dezembro do mesmo ano esteve em Madrid, onde tomou aulas de dança flamenca com Lucya Real, Yara Castro, Cristóbal Reyes, Domingo Ortega, Mercedez Ruiz e “La Tati”. Como resultado da concentração de seus esforços na cultura flamenca fez nascer em 2002 a Companhia Ballet Flamenco Centauros dando ao Espaço Flamenco Natércia Loureiro nova diretriz. O ideal da Companhia, cujo corpo de baile é constituído de profissionais graduados no Espaço Flamenco, é levar ao público o verdadeiro espírito espanhol, rico em temperamento e precisão técnica, elaborando de forma respeitosa a cultura espanhola, mais precisamente da região de Andaluzia, onde o flamenco se firmou desde os meados do século XVII, com a fusão dos povos andaluz, israelita, árabe e principalmente cigano. |

Alexandra Beller/Dances is an ensemble of highly skilled dancer/actors working on the edge between dance and theater. Rich with personal revelations, performances attempt to move, stimulate, impassion and incite the audience. Ripe with metaphor, abstracted narrative and controversial ideas, the dances traffic through the dangerous territory of homophobia, sexism, and emotional isolationism. The company seeks to intersect distinctions between races, nationalities, sexual orientations and political affiliations through a series of artistic collisions. The creations are a truly unique hybrid form, where speaking and moving are essential forces in the creation of meaning. Dances often pay homage to great writers and fertile landscapes of words are often used to create a sense of place, time and relationship. Movement is a key to the startling, idiosyncratic and mysterious information that resides in the body.

Depois de ser muito tempo massacrado pela palavra, o teatro descobriu o gesto, o salto, opulo. Então deu a mão à dança. O par achando que podia ser ainda mais espetacular botou o circo na roda. Os três se olharam e disseram ao mesmo tempo: Intrépida Trupe Somos! Isso aconteceu em 1986, dentro da missão impossível que foi a viagem do Circo Voador ao México para a Copa do Mundo. Fragmentos da Escola Nacional de Circo, na Praça da Bandeira, somados a estilhaços de dançarinas do Coringa, mixados a atores do Manchas e Manias e designer da Blitz, só podia dar em algo além do nível do mar...
