Can you feel the heat? It is not just the summer weather. Give in to the scorching passion of Flamenco in the Sun 2006, which will burn your loins with each pounding step of its forbidden dance today through August 6. Actually the “forbidden dance” is the lambada, not flamenco. But you will learn that, too, if you attend the festival. You can also see world-class performances, take a flamenco guitar class, learn how to sizzle on the castanets, pick up some hot dance moves, the whole deal.
Now in its fourth year, the festival is bigger than ever, with a week of concerts, workshops, and a flamenco-themed film or two. Most of the events will be held around Fort Lauderdale, although award-winning flamenco artist Israel Galván stars in Dos Hermanos at Miami-Dade County Auditorium on July 30. Go to the performance of Café Cantante on August 1 and you get free dessert! ¡Olé! We are so there.

July 29-Aug. 6
