Course Description
These monthly Special Flamenco workshops are taught from our studios in Battersea by experts in specific flamenco skills. They are designed for dancers of all levels, as an opportunity to expand their knowledge of different elements that are fundamental to enrich the flamenco learning journey.
- Level 1 & 2 (beginners and improvers) workshops have a duration of 1 hour.
This hour-long workshop employs the palo of Siguiriya to learn its rhythm as well as basic bastón techniques. Although the focus is mainly on technique for using bastón, students will also learn particular rhythm patterns that are common in a Seguiriya and practice the resulting sequence.
- Level 3, 4 and 5 (intermediate to advanced) workshops have a duration of 1.5 hours, and are comprised of technique and choreography.
This 1.5hr workshop will include some basic technique exercises for both sitting and standing positions. We will practice a number of compás exercises in the rhythm of Jaleos and weave them into a short choreography representing the typical sections of most Flamenco dances (entrada, llamada, marcaje & escobilla).
You can choose to book one of the upcoming workshops per level, or both dates. They are independent, meaning you can book only one of them, but of course being able to book both will allow you to get a deeper understanding of the special skill taught.
Please note that you must bring your own bastón to these workshops. You can find a variety in this link if you need to purchase it.
We highly recommend that you book a seat as soon as you can in order to avoid disappointment, as our courses fill up very fast!
