José Carmona “Rapico”

Dancer | Madrid

Born in Palma de Mallorca, he believes in dance as his best way to express himself. Since he was a baby, his grandmother used to put him to sleep singing Soleá, so his love for Flamenco was born with him. At 3 years old he steps on his first stage. His teachers have been artists of the stature of Antonio Canales, Farruquito, José Maya and Alfonso Losa. His restless personality leads him to put together several of his own shows. The latest, “Rapikeando” and “Errante”, premiered with great success at the Teatro Real and at the prestigious “Festival Flamenco de Torrelodones”, last November, a show that will be back on stage on June 17, 2018 at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, within the Las Minas Flamenco Tour Festival.
