i went back to lessons on monday. incredible.

and i just spent the last couple hours watching videos like the following, with antonio gades, one of the most incredible and famous flamenco dancers/choreographers of all time:
carlos saura's carmen

wow! beautiful. the choreography reminded me of Jerome Robbins choreography in West Side Story of the school dance with similar themes. Never realized how similar flamenco, tap, and jazz have similar techniques.
