DE PASO- was first presented at the XXVI Certamen de Coreografía de Danza Española y Flamenco de Madrid (XXVI Madrid Competition in Spanish Dance Choreography and Flamenco) where it received the Second Prize in the Soloist Choreography category and the First Prize as the Best Music Composition for Dance. From there, it went on to other runs, winning the Second Dance Category Prize at Madrid's City Council Competition for Young Creators.

After the success of the piece, a new and ardent creative phase began to convert De Paso into longer and more detailed choreographic work.

This new version finally premiered and was selected in 2021 to represent the Casa Patas Foundation on their annual U.S. tour.

The wonders of the unknown, the fear of failure, the pleasure of sharing the journey in which we live, through images that we construct with our bodies and our senses, images that give way to dance and to music as the only language in which we find and understand ourselves, no matter where the road on this journey might take us.

Inspired by the verses of the popular flamenco “cante” (song), De Paso is a performance that is about the road that we take on our journey through the world; it is about the points of encounter where different lives, temperaments and feelings interrelate.
