The dance styles we offer all have community and communal origin stories. One thing I knew then, and I know now, is that dance should be accessible to all, regardless of age, shape, or ability. I was able to experience such an environment when I spent three months in Jerez, Spain in the spring of 2024. There, flamenco IS community.
Community members support those dancing, singing, and playing instruments–young or old, professional or novice, family taught, or academy taught, local or outsider–no matter who you are, if you participate respectfully, you are supported as part of the community.
