Sara Baras
Female flamenco dancer
Choreographer
Name:Sara Pereyra Baras
Birth: 1971 Cádiz

"Dancing is heart and emotion first of all, but of course, without coordination in one's movements, a sense of rhythm and flexibility, it is impossible to dance. The heart is important, but so is the technique".
At present, she is the most prestigious bailaora at an international level, and she has already undertaken an intense activity which includes performances all over the world. She learned how to dance from her mother, Concha Baras, and she already started to excel when she joined the company of guitarist Manuel Morao in 1989. Her talent was rewarded with important awards like the Madroño Flamenco of Montellano (Seville), the first prize in the television programme-contest Gente Joven on TVE (Spain´s public television broadcating company) and later, in 1999 and in 2001, she received the Max prize for the Best Female Dance Performer.

She formed an artistic partnership with Javier Barón, Merche Esmeralda included her in her show Mujeres, she worked with Antonio Canales on Gitano, and with El Güito in the Chatele Theatre in Paris. She danced with Manuel Morao in the Seville Expo in 92 and later, they repeated the show in the Cartuja auditorium and in the Town Hall Theatre in New York. As a solo dancer, she took part in several tributes to Camarón de la Isla, who had been her artistic sponsor. In 1994, she danced in the Seville Biennial fair and toured Asia. In 1997, she started her own company, with which she closed the Festival Nacional de Cante de las Minas. The first shows that it staged were Sensaciones (1998) and Sueños (1999). Afterwards, Sara Baras entered the world of drama with Juana la Loca (2001) and Mariana Pineda (2002).

She made the jump from the stage to television, cinema and the catwalks. In 1998 she presented the programme Algo más que Flamenco on TVE. In July 1999, in the Patio of the Casa Pilatos in Seville, she shot Mission Impossible II, starring Tom Cruise, under the orders of director John Woo. As a model, she has walked down the catwalk for Amaya Arzuaga in the Fashion Week in London and for Francis Montesinos in the Pasarela Cibeles in Madrid, and in Lisbon. With her company, she also presented an underwear collection by Triumph, and she was featured in the catalogue of Cartier Jewels.
