CHILDREN'S FLAMENCO
For children aged 4-14 years. A fun introduction to flamenco dance, your child will learn basic technique and enjoy moving to flamenco rhythms and music. Your child will work on building their fine motor skills & coordination with simple exercises, choreography and play.
BATA DE COLA
A specific element of flamenco dance, a "complemento" or prop. The Bata de Cola is easily recognised as a long skirt with a train, and the dancer manoeuvres it, manipulating it with the lower body as well as picking it up and lowering it. A special skill with its own technique, this class will require an intermediate/advanced level of flamenco dance. It is fine to begin class without owning a skirt, but it is recommended that students look to buy or hire their own in order to fully understand how to work with it. Help is available for sourcing your bata.

PERFORMANCE GROUP
By invitation. At Flamencollab we believe that performing is one of the best ways to improve our dancing, and are passionate about providing opportunities to our students.
During Performance Group we will be working on building a repertoire of choreographies to present in public, whilst working on stage skills such as expression, positioning, transitions etc.
If you have a desire to perform, let it be known!
OPEN LEVEL CLASSES
CASTANETS
A percussive instrument played with the hands and fingers.
In this class, students learn basic technique and drills to build their castanet skills. Rhythms are taught with the intention to build proficiency to eventually combine playing castanets with dance.
​
SEVILLANAS​
A traditional Andalusian folkloric dance, the Sevillanas is danced in pairs, usually at parties and fairs. The Sevillanas is a lot of fun and a must to learn if you are interested in Andalusian culture. The 4 Sevillanas will be taught until the class has learned them all and are confident dancing in partners and at various speeds.
