Schedule for Winter Term 2020
January 6 – March 31 (no classes Feb 17 – 23
Wednesdays from 6:00-7:00pm is BEGINNER CASTANET/SEVILLANAS which will run from Jan 8 – March 25 and the registration amount is $180 for 10 weeks.
If there is an instrument that we associate with flamenco, there is no other than the castanets, which together with the guitar, represent the identifying sound of flamenco music and dance as well as Spanish folklore and culture. If you are studying flamenco dance, you should add castanets to the training as every performance we do for the public must include castanets. I provide castanets for the students to borrow until you decide to buy your own. We also cover the first verse of the Sevillanas, which is Spain’s most popular dance.
Thursdays from 6:30-7:30pm is Advanced Beginner Flamenco which will run from Jan 9 – March 26. Registration amount is $200 for 11 weeks.
This class has completed Introduction to Flamenco or has some previous dance training. We will continue building all areas of technique while learning the Bulerias, which is one of the most important palos to learn as a flamenco dancer. The 12 beat rhythmical structure is learned and a choreography is also part of the course.
