Yaelisa & Caminos Flamencos was formed in 1990 and is dedicated to creating and presenting flamenco programs with a fresh, contemporary approach. Their mission is to enrich and educate the community by presenting innovative contemporary works which reflect the "nuevo flamenco" movement in Spain today. The vision has been to expand the vocabulary of traditional flamenco dance and music to include multi-disciplinary collaborations with artists in other fields. Creating and presenting flamenco programs with a fresh, contemporary approaching since 1993, Artistic Director Yaelisa has collaborated with artists in other mediums.

Creating innovative theatrical presentations has established her as a choreographer of merit; she is the recipient of an Emmy Award for Choreography in 1993 for the PBS program, "Desde Cadiz a Sevilla," and a Choreography Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1996. Yaelisa has spent lengthy periods of time performing in Spain and returned to the Bay Area in 1996. Repertory works include the critically acclaimed "Orfeo y Eurydice," "SADIKA," "Mujeres" and "El Flamenco de Lorca." With a reputation as one of the leading flamenco instructors in the United States, Yaelisa has established a school in the SF Dance Center where she offers a comprehensive program of training at all levels with nine classes each week.. In 1997 Yaelisa began a rigorous training program to develop young local dancers for her Company. The new corp de ballet premiered at Stanford University in 1998.
