Carmen Young, a dancer born in Mexico in 1992, began studying dance in her native country at a very young age, to further deepen her learning of Flamenco dance with the best dancers and teachers in Madrid and Seville. She has received classes from Manolo Marín, Cristóbal Reyes, María Juncal, El Junco, Isabel Bayón and Juana Amaya, among others and since her arrival in Seville, she became one of the most outstanding students of the Cristina Heeren Foundation. She has participated in numerous shows with her teacher Cristóbal Reyes, being a repeater in some of them and also with María Juncal, Javier Latorre and Antonio Molina “Choro” in the recently released “Flamencos y mestizos” in 2019. Her tenacity and love for Flamenco has made a great promise that little by little has become a reality, demonstrating their art since March 2018 on the stage of “Casa de la Memoria”.
