I have been invited to participate in “The Magpie Collection – A Dance Festival” at Mile Zero Dance this July.
As part of the festival, I will be teaching a class in flamenco rhythm and body percussion on Tuesday, July 23rd from 12:00 – 1:30.
As well, Rosanna Terracciano and I are collaborating for a flamenco dance piece “ALONE” on July 27th.

ALONE – One of the greatest challenges of working as a flamenco artist outside of Spain (and especially as a prairie artist in Canada) is the scarcity of other flamencos to interact with on a regular basis. Flamenco is such a complicated and interactive artform, yet we often find ourselves isolated – conversing with imagined musicians, dancers, and singers – preparing for the brief moments when we will finally get to react to each other in performance. How do we prepare for those brief moments of togetherness? How do we perform flamenco when there’s no one to perform with?
