Earlier this year, Felipe taught at major festivals in Toronto and Portland; danced on cruises in South American & the Mediterranean; and toured & taught in more than a dozen cities throughout the U.S. and Europe. He spent the month of August dancing & DJing in Buenos Aires, his second visit of the year.
