A man with a gray beard, resembling David Zambrano, wears a hoodie pulled tightly over his head, obscuring his eyes and most of his face, creating a mysterious and contemplative appearance. The image is in black and white.

Five people, inspired by David Zambrano, are dancing barefoot in a spacious room with a plain, textured wall. The person in front, wearing a gray shirt and pink pants, smiles with eyes closed while others move freely in the background.

His pieces range from set choreography, structured improvisation, and pure improvisation. Born in Venezuela, Zambrano spent 15 years in New York, and now lives between Amsterdam and Brussels continuing to perform and teach worldwide.

His improvisation is committed to art as a cultural exchange developing the creative process in a world without borders. Zambrano sees improvisation as an art form and choreography as a vehicle to further develop his work in improvisation.

Zambrano’s pursuits as an improviser, choreographer, and performer have been presented all over the world. Zambrano’s methods in improvisation are influenced by the training he teaches around the globe.

The most notable method is his Flying Low technique which examines the dancer’s relationship to the ground; and Passing Through group composition exercising the practice of infinity possibilities of moving together inside a defined time-space environment. These techniques are very sought after by festivals, dance companies and schools.
