FERIA DE FLAMENCO

We celebrated the end of our fall/winter and spring term of flamenco dance with a performance featuring over 40 students and professionals from Ritmo Flamenco at our new performance venue on 100 Symes Rd. It was attended by friends and family (100 people) in our spacious new table/studio space. Some of our students have been studying flamenco for over 10 years and others just started this past year and a few jumped into the performance after signing up in April!!! Can’t wait to see you all again soon. The fall schedule is being worked on but this summer will be spent mostly touring and performing in Toronto and various cities in Ontario. Sporadic workshops will be set up so keep posted if you want to start flamenco with us soon! Email vscannura@gmail.com to get put on a wait list for the next session.
