Chanelar is a kaló word -Kaló is the language of the Spanish gypsies- derived from the Sanscrit Jñana, that means: to know, to understand.

The Chanelar Project is a program of Dances of the World Society dedicated to Flamenco that pursues two main objectives:

1. Preserving Flamenco as a Culture and an Oral Tradition.
2. Preserving aspects of Flamenco, as a Perfoming Art, that are in danger of extinction.
   
   Our most important activities to fulfill these objectives are to produce audiovisual materials and present shows that honor these aspects of Flamenco.
   
   The chanelar project gratefully acknowledges the help from a grant by the Gabinete de Iniciativa Joven in Extremadura (Spain)
   
   Some of the productions we have accomplished so far are:
