Ihosvany Rodríguez

Ihosvany Rodriguez was born in Matanzas, Cuba, where he began his career as a dancer at the age of 10, with the passage of time he became more interested in ballet since at first he wasn’t sure that dancing was what he liked to do. At 13 years of age he participated in several municipal competitions where he won the gold medal several times.

After three difficult but beautiful years in the national school he was accepted into the National Ballet of Cuba (BNC) where he participated in many choreographies and classical ballets, traveled to several countries such as, Italy, Spain, Canada, Uruguay and Venezuela. In 2009 he went to Venezuela as part of a cultural exchange with 8 other dancers, He danced The Nutcracker, and Carmen. After returning to Havana after 4 months in Caracas he was promoted to soloist for having done an excellent job on tour. Ihosvany danced at the BNC for 3 years and decided to expand his path as a dancer trying his luck out of the country. At the beginning everything was very difficult but he never lost his faith and hope, so thanks to God he is now making his dream come true.
