Absolute Beginners - 6 Weeks of Flamenco
Join us for our 6 week Absolute Beginners Flamenco Class!
This Flamenco class will focus on the fundamentals of learning flamenco: proper posture, arm movements (braceo), footwork (taconeo), hand movements (floreo), and basic movement combinations, as well as some of the history, customs, and rhythms surrounding flamenco and how it came to be the national dance of Spain, as well as becoming wildly popular all over the world.
This class meets for 6 sessions on the following Sundays, from 12:00pm-12:50pm:
October 26
November 2
November 9
November 16
(2 week break)
December 7
December 14
The class location is Dance Connection Studio, 221 Center Street Grayslake. We will be at the BACK STUDIO, so park in the lot BEHIND the dance studio.
Missed classes cannot be made up, but you choose drop in classes instead of registering for the entire 6 weeks.
This class is open to students of all ages (over 13), fitness levels, and genders; everyone is absolutely welcome. No experience is necessary for this class.
What to wear: Please wear comfortable clothing. Some students prefer leggings or sweatpants, while some prefer a long ruffled skirt. Some choreography does use the skirt. A closer fitting top is preferred so posture can be seen and technique development can be supported. Sneakers are okay until flamenco shoes can be purchased. Please contact me for help finding flamenco shoes or find a reputable shop online. You can find secondhand flamenco shoes on Facebook in the public group called Flamenco Marketplace.
Payment can be made here online or in cash/venmo when you attend class. Contact me with any questions.
