Danza Voluminosa is a professional dance troupe composed exclusively of obese dancers, founded by choreographer and dancer Juan Miguel Mas in 1996.[1][2] Although originally faced with ridicule, the troupe has become more popular over decades of activity, and have even performed in the National Theatre of Cuba.[3][4]
Most dancers with Danza Voluminosa have been women, but historically the troupe has included male dancers from time to time.[5] The troupe was the subject of a Canadian documentary Defying Gravity, in 2004. They are particularly well known for their humorous rendition of Swan Lake.[3]
