Alba was born in Granada in the heart of a family devoted to flamenco, the Maya, more specifically in the zambra of the Cueva de La Rocio. It is in this environment of Sacromonte where she begins to forge her flamenco character that put her to dance almost without knowing how to walk. Niece of great flamenco names such as Manolete, Mario Maya and Juan Maya Marote, she was baptized by the Duchess of Alba who is also her godmother.<\/p>\n

After the general astonishment of the audience after her performance, she began to dedicate her life to flamenco dancing, and began to study with teachers such as Juan Andr\u00e9s Maya, Bel\u00e9n Maya, Iv\u00e1n Vargas, etc.<\/p>\n
