WHAT WE DO

At Casa Triana Flamenco, we offer a full flamenco experience that blends education, performance, and cultural connection. Our programs include flamenco dance classes for all levels, percussion instruction, and seasonal community performances that celebrate our students’ artistic growth.

We bring flamenco into schools through engaging, hands-on educational programs that introduce young people to the rhythms, movements, and cultural roots of this powerful tradition. We also present Tablao Flamenco performances, dynamic live shows that educate audiences and showcase flamenco as a living art form.

Rooted in community and a strong commitment to artistic excellence, we’re building a vibrant cultural home for flamenco in Chicago, and we invite you to be part of it.

WHAT WE OFFER

Education – Group and private classes in dance and percussion for all ages and levels, from complete beginners to advanced artists. Our educational programs bring flamenco into schools through residencies and assembly presentations, inspiring the next generation to connect with rhythm, movement, and culture.

Performance – Professional productions, community showcases, and end-of-session tablaos that highlight both seasoned performers and emerging student talent. We also create customized performances for festivals, cultural events, and private celebrations.

Community Outreach – Workshops, cultural talks, and partnerships with arts organizations, community centers, and dance institutions across Chicago. Through our Flamenco Explained blog and online resources, we make flamenco’s rhythms, history, and traditions accessible to everyone, anywhere.

Cultural Preservation & Creative Development – We honor flamenco’s rich heritage while fostering innovation through new choreography, original music, and collaborations with artists from diverse backgrounds, ensuring flamenco thrives as a living, evolving art form.

WHO WE HELP

Casa Triana Flamenco welcomes individuals of all ages and skill levels, from curious beginners to aspiring professionals. We support artistic growth by offering high-quality training, meaningful performance opportunities, and spaces for community connection.

Through our classes, events, and outreach programs, we help local and national artists develop their craft, share their passion, and build sustainable careers in flamenco. At the same time, we are deeply committed to sharing this art form with those who seek joy, connection, or cultural expression, whether or not they wish to pursue it professionally.

Our inclusive approach fosters a vibrant, supportive community where everyone has a place in the world of flamenco, on stage, in the classroom, and beyond.
