Así baila mi trujillana

“Asi baila mi trujillana”, by Juan Benetes Reyes is a “marinera”, a typical romantic couple dance from the Peruvian coastal region. In the most famous variation, the “Marinera Norteña”, the female dancers wear big, beautiful dresses, but are performing with bare feet; and this mostly on rough surfaces. In our video Kathye Molina dances on the bare concrete floor of an old ironworks.

Kathye Molina is a Peruvian dancer who teaches and practices her folkloric dance in Germany. Juan Carlos Navarro studied classical guitar in Peru and Germany. He is one of the most active Peruvian guitarists of his generation. He regularly gives master classes and can be seen at international concerts, competitions and guitar symposia.
