Choreography of Paco de Lucia's "Maria de la O"
Joaquín Grilo, dancer and choreographer, was born in the cradle of flamenco, Jerez de la Frontera, Spain, in 1968. Joaquín is a powerful dancer who is considered one of today's leading male proponents of the flamenco genre. While his singular and personal style has made him an innovator in flamenco, he is firmly connected to and grounded in traditional flamenco. Joaquín's unbounded energy, unparalleled skill, and charm have turned his dance style into a personal trademark.
Joaquín started his flamenco training at the age of three. At the age of thirteen, as a member of a flamenco company in Jerez and already showing great promise, he toured extensively, becoming a principal dancer three years later. In 1993, he appears in the critically acclaimed film "Flamenco" by renowned Spanish director Carlos Saura. Joaquín has won numerous major Spanish flamenco awards, and in 1997 a nationwide poll selected him as Spain's best flamenco dancer. After performing as a principal dancer with several flamenco companies and exhibiting an uncanny mastery, he formed his own company. Joaquín has collaborated with leading flamenco artists such as guitarist Vicente Amigo, pianist Dorantes and dancers Pastora Galván and Joaquín Cortes. His most notable collaboration was with the great Paco de Lucia, touring as lead dancer for seven years.
