Classes & Workshops

Level: Higher Beginners

Learn: More than a choreography, you will have an introduction to the interaction of dance to live song and guitar. This is a preparation for students to eventually dance to live flamenco in the future.

Here, we work on the style & technique, based on the choreography of the  Alegrías de Cádiz. This is a choreography by our maestro in Seville, Manuel Betanzos. It is also suitable for those who are  members of our new online courses created in Spain (Maestros Flamenco Online), who want to practise.

You will be accompanied either by live song, an occasional guitarist or with music recordings that enable you to understand comparatively the variations you will encounter in live flamenco.

Level: Beginner

Learn: Rhythm, Technique & Flamenco Style

In this class, we explore the Tangos de Triana, a festive dance associated with the flamenco quarters in Triana, Seville.

As this class intended for beginners, you’ll get to learn and build a 4-beat rhythm-foundation. Gain awareness of how to work your body, arms and ‘flamenco fingers’,  flow with movement and the feeling of dance.

This class is not choreography-focused. If you are keen on choreography and understanding how to eventually work with live song & guitar, you can consider our Alegrías de Cádiz class (Sun 10.30am, Higher Beginners level)

Level: Beginners

Learn: Dance foundation, body awareness, coordination and dance extracts.

Move with Confident Beauty! Experience the elegance and poise of Classical Spanish Dance. Suitable for any one who wants to enjoy dance and its uplifting benefits.

Gain body awareness, build coordination and rhythm to inspiring music, keeping the mind, body and heart going! With Spanish Dance, have fun learning about Spanish culture too!

Castanets: You can learn to dance with or without castanets.

For those without castanets background, we recommend you do this class without castanets. This Sunday class is dance movement-based so we would not be going through introductory techniques of castanets. Therefore, if you are keen to learn to play, you can take up our castanets & music class (Fridays). That class (which is not a dance class) will focus purely on the introductory techniques of castanets (how to put them on, basic foundation), rhythm and musicality.

Level: Beginners

Learn: The focus here is on learning how to play castanets: how to wear your castanets, the correct hand posture, how to strike them, how to practise to build strength in your fingers.

Short & sweet sessions during lunch hour. Join this ‘no-sweat workout’ and get your fingers going! Fit fingers, fit minds! Why? Because the mind makes connections and keeps active!

Great for rhythm, coordination, musicality. Enjoy discovering how you can accompany any music to castanets!

We’ll also be working through some pieces from our new online courses created from Spain, Maestros Danza, by our maestro, Paloma Gómez.

Note: This is not a dance class, however, you will be practising with arm coordination, and upper body. This class is suitable supplementary class for those in our Sunday classes, which is a dance class and where you can accompany your dance with castanets.
