Welcome

About Caló Gitano:

Caló Gitano is a professional flamenco dance company and academy that was founded in 2001 by flamenco dancer Marianela “Malita” Belloso and guitarist Farzan “Fernando” Kendrick. Since its inception, the group has grown to include members from several different countries, and has performed flamenco throughout Georgia and the Southeast. The group performs regularly throughout the Atlanta area, and its energetic performances have garnered the group recognition on the award-winning program, “This is Atlanta”, and has given the group the opportunity to perform on CBS's "Better Mornings Atlanta"

Flamenco Shows for Schools and Universities:

Caló Gitano specializes in live, interactive, and energetic flamenco presentations for audiences of all ages. The director of the group is a certified classroom and Spanish teacher who not only teaches middle school Spanish, but also is a professionally trained salsa and flamenco dancer. The Caló Gitano performance team strives to make every presentation entertaining and informative from beginning to end, and realizes that to make a connection with the students and to maintain their attention, the show needs to be personable, relatable, funny, and interactive at all times. With a certified teacher at the helm and an experienced lawyer and public speaker as the co-presenter for its programs, Caló Gitano is able to keep the students entertained, but at the same time make sure that the fun stays focused and educational. In each performance, the group incorporates aspects of the curriculum that the students are studying by reinforcing and reviewing what the students have been learning in the classroom, and by allowing the students to directly participate in the show by dancing with, clapping with, and constantly interacting with the performers.
