Based in Calgary, Canada, I offer a combination of regular flamenco dance classes, specialized workshops, and one-on-one training. I have over ten years of experience teaching flamenco classes. Classes use an integral approach to flamenco as a language and include thorough analysis of all the elements: dance, singing, guitar, and palmas. All classes include a strong technique component, aimed at challenging students in a safe and growth-oriented environment.

My goal is to provide well-rounded flamenco training to students, emphasising musical aspects of flamenco dance. To this end, regular workshops are offered in bulerias por fiesta, palmas, compas and rhythm. These workshops are appropriate for anyone who would like to enjoy flamenco as an art form, dancers, musicians, singers. As my students advance in their flamenco journey, I offer them opportunities to join my cuadro at my regular tablao performances.

One-on-one training:

If you have a specific challenge that you would like to address, I also offer one-on-one training through private classes. Together, we can work on the technical aspects of your dance or create a dance for you that can be performed in the setting of your choosing. Shoot me a message with your ideas and we can go from there.
