Mariya

Welcome to my website - a window into my world of Flamenco. Though, I'm not an Andalusian gypsy, I consider myself a flamenca - a passionate woman, who expresses her individuality, emotion, and spirit through an enchanting and complex artform of Flamenco. 

I look forward to hearing from you. You can find my contact information here , or leave me a note in my Guestbook . ¡Olé!
