YOU ARE INVITED! SAT 21 & SUN 22 OCT are two special days – Here’s your chance to know the Spanish Bolero School (Escuela Bolera), a balletic genre quite new to Singapore.

Featuring 1 dance demo-talk and 2 masterclasses all conducted by guest artist, Paloma Gómez, former Principal Dancer of Spain’s acclaimed Ballet Nacional. This programme, the Heritage of the Spanish Bolero School is part of the National Art Council’s Got to Move nation-wide dance movement.

Calling Ballet Students: The Masterclass are suitable for students with ballet background as Escuela Bolera is a balletic genre, danced to castanets. Ballet students attending the Masterclasses would not need to dance with castanets though. They will however, get to hear how this instrument is rhythmically used as an integral element to the balletic dances. (Please wear your usual ballet shoes and attire)

Observers invited go ‘behind-the-scenes’ of an art: Those who don’t have ballet background can attend the Masterclasses as observers. What better and excellent way of getting to know an art than to see it being taught, explained and practised? Those keen can observe the masterclass at the Singapore Dance Theatre studio.

Dance Demo-Talk on Spanish Dance

Practitioners, teachers, students of ballet and character dance, dance lovers and non- dancers are welcomed! Did you know that Spanish Dance has an amazingly wide diversity? Most people have known of Flamenco, and here in this dance demo-talk, you’ll get to know Classical Spanish Dance and the Spanish Bolero School (Escuela Bolera). Paloma will provide an overview of these dance forms, demonstrate the differences in styles as well dance a couple of Classical Spanish Dance pieces. An interactive Q&A will follow too.
