Clara Ramona
Clara Ramona, the esteemed Spanish dancer and flamenco artist with a profound respect for tradition and a liberal and accommodating attitude towards modernism, breaths life to both pure and energizing flamenco thus gaining international recognition for her original stage productions. She pursued her professional ballet training in Boston before eventually joining the Ramón De Los Reyes Spanish Dance Theatre as a principal dancer and choreographer. It was there where she first showcased her artistic choreographic genius with the widely applauded Carmina Burana that had repeated runs in top-notch theatres in the Americas and Europe long after its debut. She established herself in Madrid, the Mecca of flamenco founding her own dance company, Ballet Español de Clara Ramona, through which she has staged productions of critical acclaim the world over for more than 15 years. Through the years she collaborated with flamenco artists of stature such as La Tati, Tomás de Madrid, and Antonio Alonso, Miguel Ángel and her highly acclaimed sons: Isaac and Nino De Los Reyes.More than a performer, Clara’s greater mission is nurturing future world class talents, previously as a faculty member of the Boston Conservatory of Music and Dance, her alma mater, Walnut Hill School of Performing Arts and Harvard University Dance Program, in addition to leading seminars at Boston University School of Fine Arts, and Bates College Dance Festival, Denison University. Today, she dedicates her time to honing students worldwide into flamenco dancers capable of commanding global recognition.Beyond the traditional frontiers of flamenco, Clara paved the way for its blossoming in Asia for the last 15 years, conducting workshops repeatedly in Singapore, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia, Japan, Philippines, Vietnam, Nepal, Australia, which then included several China tours of the legendary Carmen with her company of 25 Spanish performers.After years of touring and holding workshops across Asia, in 2005, Clara secured a more permanent footing in the Philippines. There she established her first dance school in Asia (CLARA RAMONA CENTRO DE DANZA FLAMENCA). With select students, she formed the Clara Ramona & Co… which toured with her to Hong Kong, Malaysia, Nepal, etc. In 2010, she moved her school to Hong Kong (CLARA RAMONA FLAMENCO DANCE CENTRE) with an extension in Beijing. Continuing to teach and tour she now invites dancers from Spain as visiting guest performers and teachers. Exposing her students to authentic flamenco, she brings Spain to Asia.
