Dancing in the Alpujarras, Granada

The Alpujarra region of Granada is widely acclaimed as an area of outstanding natural beauty, where wooded hillsides cascade into bubbling rivers, snowy mountain peaks preside over leafy olive groves and whitewashed villages are strewn on craggy outcrops. Such an landscape has an irresistible attraction to Artisans, Painters, Writers, Musicians and such like creative spirits, so it comes as little surprise to find the area used as a backdrop, or rather a stage, for the convening of a 'start of summer' Dance Camp! 
Not a Dance Camp in the usual 'pack off the kids' type of way, but a coming together of people from infinitely varied backgrounds, ages, creeds and cultures, to spend a few day celebrating nature, dance, music and life!
