-
A playful and engaging introduction to flamenco where young dancers learn the fundamentals of rhythm, posture, arm movements, and basic flamenco patterns. Through games, songs, and creative movement, students build coordination, confidence, and musical awareness. Over the session, we will create a short choreography to be showcased in our Holiday Show alongside professional dancers, live musicians, a cantaora (flamenco singer), a guitarist, a percussionist, and palmeros (rhythmic hand-clappers).
-
A dynamic and inspiring class that develops flamenco technique, rhythm mastery, and stage presence. Students will work on posture, arm work, footwork, and musical interpretation while learning more intricate flamenco patterns and combinations. Together, we will create a group piece to be performed in our Holiday Show with professional dancers, live musicians, a cantaora, a guitarist, a percussionist, and palmeros. This class builds the skills and confidence needed for a true flamenco stage experience.
