About the Instructor
Dirce Flores is a professional dancer from Mexico. In 1995, at the age of 10, she was cast in a local TV show for over a year. After her time on television, she returned to the study of folkloric and other forms of dance. That extended curriculum gave her the opportunity to perform in the best theaters in Oaxaca. Dirce began teaching Mexican folk dance classes at age 17, became a ballet teacher for beginners at the age of 18, and was part of a ballet company until she was 20. Dirce put her dance career on pause when she became a mom. Now she looks forward to teaching again and sharing her love of dance in the Wood River Valley, where she has lived since 2008.
