Flamenco is a mystery which has taken me down a winding road, at times if felt like a maze, other times like a well crafted science. It brought me moments of utter joy, but also broke my heart. Here is a clip of one moment along this journey, dancing Alegrias, attempting to capture the impossible balance of joy and sadness. The contrasting forces of gentleness with forcefulness. Will I ever do this art form justice? Who knows? …. I keep on trying.
