By Lena Herzog
Published in 2003 by Periplus Publishing London Ltd.

This work presents a collection of 100 black and white photographs taken by Lena Herzog. The photographer followed both the San Francisco-based Caminos Flamenco dance troupe, founded by the Emmy award-winning dancer/choreographer, Yaelisa, and the classes of Manuela Rios in Seville.

These photographs, taken over a four-year period, give glimpses of the rigorous training of these dancers.
