He doesn't appear to breathe, tremendous athlete and artist.

I agree!

[@jerometotes5311]

Let us also appreciate the hand clapping because that too is amazing. In fact everything about this performance is amazing.

[@maple8859]

Right! I lost track of the dancing because my eyes were glued to the clapping.

[@lefauteuilparesseux7971]

Yeah I was about to say how rare it is, to have people clapping together without accelerating ! They must all be confirmed musicians.

[@violettedamian1633]

superb! fantastic dance! thank you!

[@buhodespierto24-365]

Divinooo !!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@nassauguy48]

I am Greek, and I absolutely love Spain. Our dancing and our emotions are so very similar, indeed, the entire Mediterranean!

[@santusanturohit4832]

Now compare Flamenco with Kathak and Rajasthani folk dance..Love to both Greece and Spain.

[@karenwaddell9396]

I find similar power and attention in Irish dance. The ankle bends, the reel and the door in Ireland. The clog, the stiff upper body, the seriousness in sound and rhythm. Excellent!!

[@maryamkim1281]

Atlantic, as you may know, Flamenco itself originated in India, in the deserts of Rajastan, and thus not a product of any Mediterranean peoples.

[@elizabethwallace-donnelly.2356]

Same as Irish

[@rheinhartsilvento2576]

​@@maryamkim1281 It very much is though. Part of its origin may very well come from the Gypsies, who arrived in Europe around the 10th century. But it evolved, was developed, transformed and expressed in Mediterreanean culture. It didn't come ready made from somewhere else.

[@rafaelgonzalezvega]

I want to Spain with my wife and three daughters in June of 2019. we landed in Barcelona, then went to Sevilla, Granada and Cordoba. I felt so connected to the culture, the life, the music, the food and the wine. I would love to go again soon.

[@Mabesakald]

Gran bailaor Toni El Pelao (Antonio Manzano Bermúdez), descendiente de una casta de bailaores jerezanos. Gracias por honrar su memoria con estos vídeos.

[@spetruck1]

That's beautiful that you know his full name . He deserves to be remembered! I know we've all heard of Flamenco...but this performance made me feel Flamenco!

[@MicroUrb]

If anyone ever wants to know what mastering your craft looks like....here it is. Que viva Andalucia.

[@martamaia8957]

O Nureyev do baile flamenco! Il suo rigore é espetacular!

[@jcortese3300]

What more proof does the world need that tap dancers are basically percussionists who need no instrument but themselves? Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant!

[@angelinamiamor]

This is flamenco, no tap dancing.

[@themerchantderp6132]

I was entranced the whole video

[@margaritafuentesgonzalez5504]

"Zapateao"puro y duro ¡si señor!esencia concentrada Majestuoso, maravilloso y todo lo que se diga es poco

[@katwil89]

Absolutely spectacular! I can't imagine the strength and endurance someone would have to have to keep up that precision and intensity for over five minutes. His legs muscles must have been on fire by the end.

[@paulcunningham2859]

That was great. Men need to perform like this more often

[@xavscriptus3511]

Un gran artista y un genio de su generación

[@rosesperfumelace]

Now that's Flamenco!!! Bravo 👏 👏 👏

[@carolebournier1219]

Y de estos bailaores por qué nunca sabemos nada??? Nueva generación de figuras del flamenco, con toda vuestra súpertécnica, beat that!!👆

[@SBCBears]

I need a nap after watching him work. Tremendous ability.

[@Bethi4WFH]

I see this is from 1965….I hope so much this dancer is still alive and can read the appreciative comments on this site! I have never seen such a dancer, with such a motionless upper body while dancing…….truly fantastic! Total respect, from England.

[@PlanetaryCitizen]

I think he is! I've just watched a video of him from 2017, though I'm not sure if it was recorded that year. Just type his name in at KZbin.

[@opalfishsparklequasar8663]

I could picture Prince in another life doing this.

[@martamaia8957]

Ha il duende incorporato! Straordinario, impassibile come un dio egizio, fredo , distante e padrone d'una tecnica disumana.Assolutamente fantástico!!!

[@ricardojimenezjimenez5293]

Y dicen de los bailadorores de hoy .esto es bacilar ❤

[@hithere4321]

¡Este hombre es un GENIO del Flamenco! Como él, ¡nadie!✨✨✨✨👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@chantalroman7235]

Un dios...🥰🥰🥰

[@maranathasos3381]

I’m always looking for ties between cultures, especially with the Irish - I have to say this performance would make Flamenco a prime candidate for some relation to “sean nós” dancing - the still/rigid upper body coupled with rhythmic complex footwork and pronounced tapping…. and Bravo to this performance!

[@shreyabasak8515]

You're right, contrary to the caption, this is not the 'pure' Flamenco, it's clearly tinged in Irish.

[@triarb5790]

Moorish influence in both of course.

[@bythebayou5351]

@@triarb5790 please explain.

[@bythebayou5351]

@@shreyabasak8515 how so? There may be some similarities, but they may have arisen independently. How do you make the historical connection from one to the other?

[@lunapaezgarcia7646]

Cualquier flamencólogo purista te contestaría que aquí no valen mezclas ni vínculos, esto es flamenco puro y duro y así se quedará para la posteridad.

Incredible dancer & stamina ! Perfection at its best !!!

[@brianneale2006]

this is true Flamenco which I like very much and I am Welsh born in Wales but I love Spanish culture and history

He is amazing, so are the clappers. Making music without singing or instruments, just hands and feet.

I'll be waiting for new video about this flamenco dancer...simple Star one, of course You can found

[@reynasandoval9584]

Que belleza, he visto flamenco pero nunca como esto, es expectacular

[@juanmanuelgranadosdavila4984]

The old flamenco school. Everything changes, sometimes for the better sometimes for the less good. Virtuosity on the feet!: clear, clean, sober and passionate foot tapping.

[@stellaandeddieluechin1087]

WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THE ARTISTRY OF HIS PERFORMANC. TRULY FANTASTIC.

[@Liitebulb]

I used to do flamenco in my 20s... it's really difficult and I believe if you're not a "die hard" it's very difficult. He makes it look easy! It requires a crazy amount of stamina.

[@pacovarela4783]

Es otra GALAXIA. Sin palabras. Gracias por compartirlo.

(30/I/2023) TONI "EL PELAO". EXCELENTE BAILADOR FLAMENCO, CON GRAN GALLARDÍA.

[@mariamgor]

Полное впечатление, что торс сам по себе в воздухе, давая свободу ногам, которые выводят тушью четкий, экспрессивный танец-рисунок. Браво! Смотрела современный исполнителей фламенко - не то. Вот истинное фламенко! Браво!

[@miguelangelgrimm9860]

Совершенно верно.

[@coastalseasider4634]

Not too long after the date on here, I saw a talent like this in Buenos Aires. It was stunning to watch & hear. What amazing control this must take.

[@Liitebulb]

What year is this video?

[@tiburcionascimento8011]

Nunca vi nenhum dançarino de flamenco com tanto ritmo e com tanto estoque de variações. Eu sou fã de Joaquim Cortez, pela elegância e teatralidade, mas este vai para a minha galeria de feras, sem exitar..

[@chantalroman7235]

Je découvre et je suis hallucinée ?....

[@elephantintheroom5678]

I've never seen flamenco this damn good.

[@sercancaliskan5316]

First six minutes of the performance leads up to that great finale where you can see the piercing and natural unity of the spanish and the chorus at the end feels like hearing all the passion, emotion, glory, fear, excitement and the achievement of the nation in mere seconds. This gave me shivers. Masterpiece!

[@lunapaezgarcia7646]

A ver, esto es arte del pueblo gitano, cómo te diría, esto un gallego o un valenciano no lo entienden igual. Es una idiosincrasia propia, autóctona. Sentir y razonar como un gitano sólo pueden hacerlo ellos. Aquí, este bailaor pues es eso, el alma gitana y los palmeros pues son eso, alma gitana.

[@daryljay7057]

What a treat to find this treasure! I love Latin dance, music & culture, not only for its technique, skill & discipline but, mostly for its passion & emotion! Speaking of technique, I'm a retired professional drummer, (drum major in high school) I can say that what he is doing with his feet is what I'd be doing with sticks! He's doing it perfectly, complete with time signature changes & doing it dynamically! The clapping by the gallery was perfect as well! To be able to do that & be that unbelievably handsome is a sight to behold! Thank you for this post!

[@juliafoster38]

🙌🏾 pure fire...🔥🔥🔥

Discipline applies at all levels to dissolve ego. Dissolve ego and you see the Reality of each human shining forth. Give as these people do in every act from that inner wholeness that comes with fullness of body ( mind is part of body) and spirit in harmony and you see excellence.
