Dance bio
23 year old dancer Emilia Bustos is half Swedish and half Spanish. She has delighted audiences all over the world with her unique blend of salsa and flamenco. Having spent much of her childhood in Spain, the birthplace of her father, she developed a passion for flamenco and other forms of dance. She discovered salsa in her teens and traveled to Cuba to study. Since then, the journey of dance has taken her all over the world. She has studied salsa, flamenco and Argentinean tango all over Latin America and Spain. Emilia also has a great love of teaching and performing and has done both extensively throughout Europe and the United States. In her home city Stockholm she performed with group “Salsa Libre” and in Barcelona, Spain with Argentinean tango Master Jimmy Ray. While living in Sweden she also held numerous weekly classes in both salsa and flamenco. During 2006 she toured and performed full time in North America with partner Vassili in popular World Music group Children of the Revolution. Emilia’s dance performance with Children of the Revolution was recently featured two consecutive weeks on Seattle’s Channel 21. Now she is back in Sweden and teaches at La Isla.www.seattlechannel.org/videos/video.asp?ID=6010620

My Interests

Dancing (especially flamenco and salsa), music, teaching, practicing and everything in between. Seeing friends and hanging out, maybe over a nice glas of red wine :) All kings of sports in the nature, mounting climbing, canoeing, rock climing and all those kind of things.
