Details

The next Flamenco term at Battersea Spanish will start in September 2026. Leading up to that, throughout the summer, we are offering a range of stand-alone Flamenco Workshops, for students both old and new!

These workshops can all be booked individually, and offer our community the chance to explore the wider world of Flamenco, including the celebrated accessories of traditional Flamenco such as Abanico (fan), Mantón (Shawl) and more! Delivered by our 2 resident teacher/performers, Juan Carlos Otero and Lourdes Fernandez, or special guest teachers, these workshops are open to all.

Our Flamenco workshops are ticketless events - we have a guestlist! We do not send physical or digital tickets for these events, so once you have booked you will receive a payment confirmation only. Once you arrive for the event, please approach the bar to let us know of your arrival.

Please note :

Once you have registered, we are unable to offer refunds for non-participation or non-attendance, for any reason. However, we require 6 confirmed registrations to launch each workshop. Therefore, if we do not reach this minimum number shortly before the scheduled start date, the class will either be postponed (by up to two weeks), or will be cancelled (with a full refund offered). If another workshop is running at the same level but a different time, this will be offered to you.

Before you book

If you miss a class, we may be able to offer you a spot in another group at the same level, running that same week. This depends on availability and can’t always be guaranteed, but we’ll do our best!

Not sure of your level? Drop us an email if you're unsure.

If, after the first lesson, you feel you need to move to a different level, get in touch and we'll see what we can do. Depending on availability, we might be able to move you to up or down a level. We can't guarantee that the group you move to will be on the same day of the week as your old group.

Once you have registered and the course has been confirmed, we are unable to offer refunds for non-participation or non-attendance, for any reason.

What People Have to Say

I can't speak more highly of Battersea Spanish. I discovered it when I saw their Latin fitness classes advertised and was eager to get fit and tone up. I'm now doing one of their beginners' Spanish classes. You always get a warm welcome at Battersea Spanish whether it's from the teachers and bar staff, other students. It's a really cosy venue with a very supportive environment whether you're dancing or learning Spanish. The language courses are well structured and lots of fun - plenty of opportunities to practice Spanish outside of class too - games, books you can borrow, quiz and film nights, and conversation evenings. It's a place you can easily make new friends - people actually talk to each other and strike up conversations. For me it feels like a home from home.

Beginner Spanish student

Attended such a fun and enjoyable flamenco workshop in the afternoon and then watched an amazing professional show in the evening at this fabulous Spanish cultural centre in Battersea last Saturday. Such a friendly and welcoming place and event. Indulged in delicious tapas and drinks at the onsite restaurant. Already booked for next month's event. Highly recommended.
