Class Descriptions

Intro/Beginner: The intro and beginner classes focus on teaching the foundational elements of flamenco dance. In this series, students will learn and work on:

  • Compas: Staying in rhythm. The most important part of flamenco is being able to listen to, recognize, and dance to the beat of flamenco.

  • Floreo: The art of hand flourish and stylization. A beautiful floreo can enhance the presentation and “aire” of your dance.

  • Braceo: Learning the proper arm movement technique

  • Marcaje: Marking time while in compas.

  • Palmas: Learning the various flamenco hand clap techniques and how to make them sounds great!

  • Footwork technique: Being able to execute proper and clean footwork.

  • Colocación: Body posture and overall “feeling and looking flamenco”.
