Born in Seville, Angel was selected to join Los Seises, a group of ten children who dance in cathedrals on religious feast days. He then joined the Andalusian Dance Centre in 1998 where he studied until 2005. During this period, he received a grant to study at ITDanza Barcelona. From 2005 to 2007, he joined the European D.A.N.C.E. programme run by Wayne McGregor, William Forsythe, Frédéric Flamand and Angelin Preljocaj. He won two prizes at the Madrid Choreography Competition for a solo Cartas para Wendy (2006) and a duet In2 (2007).

Angel joined the Ballet national de Marseille under Frédéric Flamand in 2007. In 2008/2009, he danced for Wayne McGregor/random and came back at the Ballet national de Marseille in 2009. With their company Labotilar, Angel and Vito (also a dancer at the BNM) created in 2021 Punto y Seguido, as part of the program "open studio".
