Step into Italy: The Dance Diaries.

I’m so glad you’re here.

Today, I want to share a little history about the Tarantella…
It’s not just one dance.

But here's the truth?

The Tarantella is actually a genre—a whole family of folk dances that stretch across southern Italy, each with its own heartbeat, its own story, its own soul.
