Flamenco Dance Holidays in Andalusia
Every year Carmen organises courses during holiday periods, with the intention of bringing students of flamenco from all over the world to Andalusia. The experience over the past few years has been very good. Besides the flamenco classes, the group spends time together on the beach, sees authentic flamenco shows, and strolls around typical barrios steeped in flamenco, the scent of flamenco in every corner, breathing in the spirit of Andalusia, the land that gave birth to flamenco.
These courses are open to all students of flamenco dance, and the classes are held in Flamenco Peñas, traditional dance schools of Andalusia, and in other atmospheric venues in which dancing flamenco becomes an unforgettable experience.
Flamenco

Workshops can
coincide with the Granada
Festival of Music and Dance,
giving you the opportunity to
receive flamenco classes every
day in one of the typical
caves of the region and see
flamenco shows in Granada
every night. For more

Classes can be from 10.30am until 2.00pm every day from Monday to Saturday. During the first hour and a half we will work on flamenco rhythms, clapping , footwork and bodily technique. After a 30 minute break we will continue with another hour an a half, learning flamenco choreography and dance expression.
On the workshops we will make a journey through all the major flamenco styles or “palos” – Fandangos, Bulerias, Tangos, Soleares, Alegrias, Seguiriyas and Peteneras – introducing us to the different flamenco rhythms and learning to dance complete or partial choreographies.
