The instructor:

The moment Rachel discovered Flamenco in 2006, she realized she had finally found the dance for her, having always been told she is too heavy footed for any dance. She has studied Flamenco dancing in Australia under Serena Joy (Arte Gitana), Marina Tamayo (Flamenco Australia), and then in Singapore with Tania Goh, Paloma Gomez and Manuel Betanzos (Spanish Dance Singapore). She has performed in Australia and Singapore under the respective dance maestras, and also with her university group "Cuadro Flamenco".
