Flamenco

Come and experience the physical and rhythmical challenges of this passionate and exciting dance form.
 

 

Beginners

6.00 - 7.00pm Tuesdays

This class offers all people new to flamenco a solid introduction to all aspects of the dance (footwork, arms, palmas (clapping), jaleo (vocal support) and posture).  The one hour classes feature solid technique, followed by basic choreography.  Students will experience working with live flamenco guitar and learn one or two palo (dance styles) as the year progresses.

 

All students should wear comfortable clothing, including long full skirt and supportive shoes with a low, solid heel.  Bring water and come prepared for a fun workout.  

 

Intermediate/Advanced

7.00 - 8.30pm Tuesdays

Building on the foundations gained from the beginners class, this broad level class pushes students in both their dance technique and the development of a wider repertoire of choreography across a number of palo.  There are also potential opportunities for students to be involved in performances.
