Daniel Abreu: "El éxito viene con una corona muy pesada y requiere mucho trabajo"

Daniel Abreu, born in 1976 in Tenerife, began dancing at 18, studying Psychology and taking dance classes. He attributes his success to hard work and passion, not natural talent. Despite ridicule in his hometown La Matanza de Acentejo, Abreu persevered, arguing that one must push forward even without enthusiasm. He studied Psychology to foster professional teamwork and emotional intelligence, emphasizing the importance of empathy and trust in dance leadership.

Abreu prefers a balanced approach, combining love with discipline, cautioning against victim mentality and the need to share responsibility. He advises aspiring dancers to be realistic about the demanding nature of the profession, which requires physical fitness, emotional resilience, and a constant fight against complacency. Abreu's success is not guaranteed by critical acclaim or popular approval, but by the belief others place in his art.
