Flamenco

Today I went to my first Flamenco performance at la Parque de las Ciencias (Science Park) that is near me. My host mom was working the show and got me and my friend free tickets. It was pretty awesome to see her at work. She was owning the auditorium; having maintanence men lined up at her cue. Anyways, I  have never seen dancing like Flamenco, it was such an empowering show. She danced with so many different styles like 'stepping', some belly dancing and some hip hop moves. It was insane though, most dancing people see have girls making moves in order to entice men but that was not how I felt about Flamenco dancing. She was so confident and powerful and just dancing for herself, not for any men. It was great. Here's some pictures, they are kinda blurry but you can still see her.

Such quick and intense movements.
