Carlota Santana, celebrates the fundamental emotions that connect us while honoring
the

by The New York Times for his “bursts of brilliance and uncommon invention,” explores
the notion of personal limits and connections across borders – both literal and figurative.
Reflejos Flamencos includes traditional solos highlighting the dancer’s virtuosic
technique and nuanced improvisation, offering a transformative experience of dance
and live music.
