What is the course about?
Embodying the rhythms of more complex Flamenco ‘palos’ (Flamenco ‘forms’ such as Bulerias, Tientos & Seguirillas) and dancing with real ‘Flamencura’, that magic that happens when strong technical skill combines with true, uninhibited expression. This course also offers many performance opportunities in and out of the studio.
