Jairo Amaya is an internationally acclaimed dancer and teacher based in Jerez. Starting his professional dance career at the age of 16, he initially toured as part of the dance company of Maria del Mar Moreno and then as a soloist and teacher across Europe, Israel and the USA. When in his native Jerez, Jairo works in all of the most popular tablaos and penas (flamenco venues) as well as teaching in his own studios.His style is distinctively Jerezano, combining strength and force with the ‘sonequette’ and musical quality that is famous in this ‘cradle of flamenco’.

Cristo Heredia is from a flamenco family in Almeria, both his grandfather and father also being singers. A cantaor (flamenco singer) for dance from the age of 13, he formally debuted at the annual festival of Fondón de Almería with Tomatito at the age of 14 years. He has performed all over Spain and joined other world famous artists on tour, including Niño Josele, La Lupi and Juan de Juan. At the age of 19, Paco de Lucia requested his presence on the ‘Good Things’ tour. His recordings include ‘Almeraya’.
A wonderful opportunity to learn from an international Spanish Flamenco dancer who grew up in a gypsy community. Irene has worked with renowned artists Farruquito and Antonio Gades Company amongst others.
The workshop is aimed at Intermediate dancers with technique and choreography. There is a final Masterclass open to dancers and guitarists and Flamenco lovers of all levels. Guitarists are invited to attend the workshop where they can hone their observation skills and experience a new Flamenco performer and teacher.
