NUESTRO PROYECTO:

ILE "Travel, learn and live new experiences!"

Why ILE is a different and innovative school?

Because our goal is to be faithful to our slogan: "Travel, learn and live new experiences”.

ILE was born more than five years ago with the firm idea of offering in a personalized way the possibility of traveling, learning and living abroad an unforgettable experience through courses and training workshops in Performing Arts, Drama and Cultural Management, mainly in Spain and Italy.

ILE has also been involved in the production of cultural performances in different countries. We are especially fond of “ Otello in Danza” , supported by the Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Barcelona; Cuadros Flamencos de García Lorca, which received the support of the Instituto Cervantes of Rome and with which we obtained the prize for "Best Show" at the Zhangjiajie Festival (China); o “ I Medici” , a Renaissance dance show that recreates the celebration of the marriage between Cosimo I de Medici and Eleonor de Toledo in 1539. The latter premiered on 9 August 2015 at the Museo Nazionale Bargello and was represented again in June 2016 at the Palazzo Medici Riccardi, with the support of Ministero per I Beni e le attività culturale. On both occasions Marco Bendoni was the coreographer.
