- The Association of Professionals of the Dance of the Basque Country (ADDE) wanted to value the work of the generation of women who have participated professionally in the dance since the 1980s on International Dance Day (April 30). To do so, they have paid tribute to Ana Remiro, Alicia Gómez, Ana Rosa Iii and Laura Etxebarria. With this recognition they wanted to remind all the women that in the 1980s they took their first steps in promoting dance at the CAV and opened their doors.
The students of Dantzerti have gone through the trajectories of the four dancers and, uncovering the biography of each of them, have offered each one a piece of dance. The protagonists of the event were very excited and wanted to thank all the people who accompanied the attendees to their respective careers. Finally, with the help of several slides and images, they have remembered some passages of their professional career.
