MANUEL GUTIERREZ BIO
From a young age, he showed a remarkable talent for dance, winning his first Flamenco award at only 8 years old. He began developing his unique style under the direction of Lita Peiro, José Galván, and later with Joaquín Grilo and Javier Latorre.

By the age of twenty, Gutierrez was already producing works and touring across Europe with legendary artists including Duquende, Chicuelo, Juan Carmona. He also began collaborating with top French choreographers such as Redha, Marjorie Ascione, and Gérôme Zerbie. His growing reputation as a choreographer and producer was cemented by critical acclaim: The Telegraph called his work “fiery,” Danse Magazine dubbed him “The Young Flamenco Prince,” and Le Figaro raved, “The dance is strong, voluptuous, and spectacular… a profound type of flamenco and incredibly explosive.”

Manuel was invited to teach at prestigious studios across Europe, including L’Opéra de Paris. During this time, he worked on numerous television and stage productions as choreographer and dancer, including Romancero Gitano, El Emigrante, and others. Since 2011, Manuel has served as Artistic Director for the Global Gift Foundation and its flagship initiative, The Global Gift Gala, working alongside actress, producer, and philanthropist Eva Longoria, who serves as Honorary Chair. These events benefit foundations such as the Eva Longoria Foundation, Ricky Martin Foundation, and the Global Gift Foundation itself.

In 2012, he co-created the production Juncal Street with Fanny Ara, and his choreography for the show was nominated for an Isadora Duncan Dance Award.

Manuel is firmly establishing himself as a prolific performer and choreographer throughout the U.S. He created his first U.S. production, KOMPAZ, and launched Flamenco District.

He has performed with LA Opera as both principal dancer and choreographer in productions such as Carmen, Gato Montes, and Barbier de Seville. Additionally, he collaborated with renowned soprano Ana María Martínez in Suite Española at the Houston Grand Opera.

His ongoing collaborations with musicians across diverse genres continue to define his artistic path as an explorer of dance in general and Flamenco in particular.

“Manuel is a master of compás with a deep knowledge of flamenco’s traditional roots, yet he’s got a vanguardist style that comes across in his teaching. I have learned from him Tangos and also Bulerías de Utrera, and both times his choices of music and his beautiful cante have been a great learning experience. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn from this amazing artist, vamo’ allá!”
