Dance Camps for 6-9 year olds: Week of July 7 (Session I) includes Baile Folklórico with Vanessa Carrillo from Grupo Folklórico Quetzalén 💃

Vanessa Carrillo pictured in the foreground

As a child growing up in Sonoma, Vanessa Carrillo was always drawn to several artistic programs offered to her community, but the one closest to her heart was Ballet Folklórico. Under the direction of Victor Ferrer, she learned the stylized art form within the four walls of an elementary school. That is where she discovered her love for the art form. Seeking to further expand her knowledge, she also sought out training in various dance disciplines and with other master teachers, including Martin Romero of Ballet Folklórico Mexico Danza and Classical Ballet under the tutelage of Patty O'Reilly at Sonoma Conservatory of Dance.

In 2022, Ms Carrillo became the Associate Artistic Director of Grupo Folklórico Quetzalén. In that position, she has learned the importance of traditional Mexican folk dance within her community and the impact she has on teaching students whom often lack the opportunities she was given. In her position, she has worked with hundreds of students based in Sonoma County as well as with several organizations including the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts and Napa County Office of Education.
