Beginner dancers curious about flamenco and experienced dancers in other forms of dance will find Victorio's class provides both a unique learning experience and invaluable tools. Victorio teaches a "whole body" approach to flamenco that not only focuses on foot work and rhythms, but also the integration of the upper body in dynamic gesture.

Victorio has introduced flamenco to many professional dancers of other styles with great benefit. For ballet dancers, his approach specifically aids in finding more total dynamics and upper body elan. For jazz and ballroom dancers, he provides a greater understanding of the sharpness of style within complex rhythmic structures. For the beginner dancer, his approach is welcoming as he encourages students to find the total performance aspect right from the beginning instead of being simply bogged down in repetition.

Victorio's class affords an understanding of style that can apply to other dance forms and work expansively for the student. Many celebrities have benefited from Victorio's technique. He has worked privately with such film and TV stars as Brooke Shields, John Turturro, James Gandolfini and Tony Curtis. In the dance world, he was taught tango dancer Guillermina Quiroga, ballet dancer Fernando Bujones from ABT and Middle Eastern dancers Elena Lentini and Anasma.
