"I hired Flamenco & Sol for my mom's 60th Birthday Party. I could not be happier with how everything turned out. She was elated and everyone enjoyed their performance. They were all extremely talented, very professional, and very accommodating. After the performance they were more than willing to take photos and talk to everyone. Very friendly group of people. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend to anyone looking to add some talent and fun to an event."

"Thank you for the wonderful performance by your dancers at Amistad this morning. The students were captivated and I'm sure they'll be talking about this for days to come. In short, the dancers, the vocalist, and the guitarrist were amazing! They did an excellent job of engaging the students in the passionate world of flamenco."

Sol is a VERY gifted teacher—I have studied with her for years and feel so fortunate to have had her expert instruction. She pays attention to every aspect of the dance and makes sure you get the basics while pushing you to do more. I love her choreography. She is also an extremely talented dancer.
Review by Betts Brown
Sol is such an amazing teacher, her classes are passionate, fun and of course educational. She also gives students the opportunity to perform with live musicians and even if you are a beginner, you feel like you are already a flamenco dancer. She is the best teacher in New York.

Sol is a fabulous, top-notch instructor. She is very passionate about the dance and has the ability to make one feel as if they must start taking classes once they see her perform.

Review by Ra Ruiz
Sol is an amazing teacher!! She takes the time to explain things to her students while at the same time, she gives them the tools to actually find the answere on their own. And she makes the class super exciting!
Review by Raphael Brunn
Amazing Flamenco instructor! Sol is a uniquely wonderful teacher. Not only does she clearly teach the mechanics of a given movement, but she helps students truly connect to the soul, quality, and feeling of the movement.

“Soleá,” a solo danced by Sol “La Argentinita,” explored the more sensual and elegant side of Flamenco. She showed that she is also a master of her craft and brought the energy in the room to a fever pitch with her rhythm, speed and skill. TheaterOnline.com, May 17, 2010
Sol "La Argentinita" attracted special attention in a "Soleá," notable for its dynamic variety; here, she showed herself to be in full control of pauses as well as movements and that she was not afraid of taking all the time in the world before moving on to the next emotionally charged sequence.

But the dancer Sol, La Argentinita, harnessed the art form’s power with her seductively aggressive “Soleá,” in which her elegant carriage provided space for tension and relief. The New York Times, May 16th, 2010
