Introverted and shy as a child, Antonio Najarro found in dance not only a vocation, but also a form of vital expression. He grew up surrounded by Andalusian folklore and the popular pulse of the Feria de Málaga, where he began to dance almost without realising it, losing his embarrassment amidst improvised 'corrillos' and spontaneous applause.
It was his family who saw an opportunity for Antonio to lose his shyness and sensed that this impulse was more than just a pastime and encouraged him to train professionally.
