Talia Cohen24 January 2005
from English teacher to flamenco dancer

This week the Flamenco Festival is stamping its way through Sadler's Wells.

Talia Cohen fell in love with the dance when she went to classes in London. She moved to Spain to study with gypsy musicians and travelled the country, dancing in small private flamenco clubs.

She was so good, she was accepted and approved of by the Spanish. She's now come home, given up her job as an English teacher and runs classes in flamenco.

Judi Herman joins in.
