Bringing ancient and modern dance together in a unique way – our Friend Mustafa Erdoğan.

Mustafa Erdoğan studied Philosophy and Public Management. From the time he was young he was interested in Turkey’s local folkloric dances. He started several dance groups and won many national and international awards and competitions for his work. As the General Art Director at Fire of Anatolia, which has become one of the biggest and most famous dance groups in the world, he established the Aspendos Arena for cultural (dance) events, founded an Art Academy, he is Choreographer of the shows "Fire of Anatolia", "Fire of Anatolia - Evolution", "Dawool" and "Troy" and today performs all around the globe. His vision for Fire of Anatolia is “the meeting of civilizations. It is a dance portrait aiming to bring eastern and western cultures together while giving universal messages of peace.”
