When the body, teaching and schedules share one compás, order does not extinguish duende: it protects it. A week of learning, art and everyday life.

Before wanting to dance out front, we learned to support others from behind. Listening, clapping palmas and accompanying are part of learning to dance.

I left Córdoba alone at sixteen. Thirty-two years later I returned with Teo, to family hugs and a birthday surprise I will never forget.

Students, artists and the audience turned our studio into an intimate stage. Miguel de Badajoz brought cante and memories of the stages we have shared.

A father and a son, a very long flight and the start of a journey back to our roots. Two cultures meet in the trip I share with Teo.

A simple invitation, a peaceful park in Japan and Batres at ease. A walk with Nobu san becomes a friendship I hope to keep for years.

Remembering my parents and a conversation with God I am trying to resume. Learning to receive love without feeling I have to earn it.

Rain outside the window and Batres beside me. An ordinary night brings the quiet happiness of feeling at peace with my own life.

For years, I dreamed of seeing Hans Zimmer live. On September 16, 2026, at PIA ARENA MM in Yokohama, that dream came true with my daughter Sonia beside me. This memory also holds my gratitude to the students who help me keep teaching and dancing.
