It was spectacular! I was less nervous than when I won in the semi-final because I already feel like a winner by being a finalist. But, of course, winning a prize of this level is a springboard for an artist, and I thought that, to be honest. It is very hard to dedicate oneself to dance and these recognitions give encouragement and opportunities. <\/p>\n

Yes, that is the amount. This race is very expensive, right from the start. Any help is welcome, but almost more than that particular money, this kind of award puts artists in a better position to receive support from the administrations. <\/p>\n

The idea had been on my mind for some time. Until around the month of December last year, I started with the guitarist No\u00f1o Santiago to prepare a new choreography, the staging, the steps… No\u00f1o has been my tocaor at the festival, and I owe him a lot, because he makes me a “tailor-made suit”, and that is a privilege. <\/p>\n
It is also a privilege to be accompanied by the great cantaor Enrique el Extreme\u00f1o. When I found out that he would be with me in La Uni\u00f3n, I was thrilled. <\/p>\n
I don’t want to forget to mention Jos\u00e9 Cort\u00e9s El Indio al comp\u00e1s and another cantaor, Miguel Ortega. I have received nothing but love and support from all of them. <\/p>\n

I never had to say it so explicitly. It happened slowly. I used to watch my sister dance and at only three years old I was already imitating her. Besides, art is very present in my house. My father is a big fan of painting, my mother is a fan of styling and fashion; music of all kinds, from jazz to, of course, flamenco, is played… I haven’t had any problems in that sense, I’m very lucky. And they have made many efforts so that I could study and dedicate myself to what I like. <\/p>\n

On the family side, yes, but I assure you that this is very hard. You shed a lot of tears, it’s hard to make yourself known and there is no support for young people who want to dedicate themselves to dance. I don’t mean to imply that you can’t do it, just that you have to sweat a lot. But if you want to and if you are consistent, you can do it.<\/p>\n

You perform in different tablaos in Madrid and other areas of Spain.

I perform in tablaos when I’m not touring. For example, in El Cordob\u00e9s, Flamenco de Leones, Los Porches or Las Carboneras. I think they are perfect places to be close to the audience and they are also a thermometer to try new things, to see if a step or a choreography<\/em> works or not. The truth of your flamenco comes out in a tablao. <\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”6c8bf71b-9cc0-49bf-a2a8-2ab5f96def06″ text_font=”Domine||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”32em” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
I always prepare my performances to the maximum, wherever they are. Moreover, they are one of the few places where a flamenco artist can make himself known and earn money for his work. I respect them, I created a choreography with the name “Flamenco, Tablaos”. I premiered it in Tarragona in March. <\/p>\n
