This guy ! He seems to be sought after all over the ballet world. Following his Instagram account is like an amazing world tour. This year alone from Cuba to China and now London.

Cesar is part of the regular company of the ENB. He took the job with them several months ago, and has been performing and rising very quickly through their ranks.

Cesar certainly impressed Judith Mackrell of The Guardian in this review:

He also gets a nice mention from the Telegraph's Mark Monahan in his review:

Cesar has revealed that Dancing Times magazine has named him Dancer of the month, I assume for April.

The final of the 2016 Emerging Dancer Award was held on Tuesday (17th May) and Cesar managed to win the award.

At the same event the winner of the People's Choice Award, which is an award voted for by the public throughout the season, was announced. Amazingly, Cesar also won this award.
