I always loved watching Maria Inez dancing. She has such a great grounding! I still remember workshops with her from almost 10 years ago. I didn’t know she was performing here. Trying to make my schedule and come, but, will there be balance between the genders this year? And are there other hotel recommendations? Thank you
Hey Sophia! We are happy we helped you find a great festival. And yes, Maria Ines seems to always draw energy from the ground 🙂 Related to balance, we contacted the organizers to look for an answer. Related to hotel recommendations, when we have something more, we’ll add it here.
Thank you for sharing your enthusiasm and questions!
Hug, and let go,
the T.A.F. team
