Dancing the city

Places that tell us secrets over the years. Rhythms that fly over looking for the light.

Flamenco is much more. It is feeling, it is life. And that life is taken to the street. The flamenco shown is a subtle, elegant, measured and placed flamenco. This flamenco coexists with the torn, intense flamenco. That's why we want to bring flamenco closer in a timeless way. Let's dance the city...
