Always looking to improve his performance craft, he searched different performing arts forms. This led him to work with the famous Swiss Mime Company Mummenschanz and the New York Big Apple Circus. His deep respect for the tenacity and constant training of the circus performer inspired him to research the world of clown.

There he met the Japanese Butoh master Tadashi Endo who was influenced by Kazuo Onho, one of Butoh founders, and Mr.Camarero begun to learn Butoh from him. In 2009 the master honors his pupil inviting him to dance in the Butoh Opera Admeto, directed by the German film and opera director Doris Dörrie. The opera was presented at the International Haendel Festival in Göttingen, Germany and at the International Festival Edinburgh in Scotland.
By now Miguel Camarero had found the performance art he wants to express him self with. Realizing the complexity of Butoh he continues his training with another Japanese master Yumiko Yoshioka from the lineage of Butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata. Later on Miguel Camarero moved to Berlin and became Ms. Yoshioka’s workshop assistant. From their collaboration, several workshop performances have been created and performed around the world. In 2013 they conceived and realized an intercultural exchange project named Hybrid. It was performed in Mexico City and Lima, Peru.
