Flamenco is a series of powerful rhythms and movements- ‘armwork’/braceo, hand clapping/palmas, rhythmic body movements/marcajes, ‘foot work’/zapateado We will learn the movements and connect in tandem with the rhythm in order to feel flamenco- to dance. Once you move through the technique part of the class Cristina will guide you through the twists, turns, and stomps of this powerful dance. It is a great opportunity to try something you always have wanted to experience or a new interest. Everyone welcome! No previous experience necessary. Join the fun!
