Description
Class Experience
No prior dance experience is needed for this class. In this class, learners will be lead with a live warm up with Flamenco arm movements (brazeo), foot movements (marcaje) and each class will end with instruction and choreography of the traditional Sevillanas dance. The history of the origin of Flamenco will be introduced. To help build an understanding to the celebration of the Sevillanas, a visual presentation will be shown in advance along with pictures of traditional dance costumes. Each...
Studies show that music, art, theater and dance are crucial to the development of our children’s critical thinking and communication skills. Through flamenco, children will acquire the tools for exploring self-expression, while simultaneously opening the door to Spanish culture and language. Classes are designed to cover and practice all basic aspects of dance and movement for students without prior dance experience. Focus will be on learning the traditional dance called the Sevillanas. Students will learn hand and arm movements, foot steps, pirouettes and hand clapping. They will learn how to recognize the rhythm count of the Sevillanas and create graceful body movement.
I have performed throughout the New England area with El Arte Flamenco, Faustino Rios Spanish Dance Company at the Columbia Restaurant, Ramon delos Reyes Spanish Dance Theatre, Omayra Amaya-Flamenco Sin Limites, The Revels of Cambridge, MA and the Ballet Espanol de Clara Ramona to name a few. I have appeared on broadcast shows such as Revista Hispana WHDH TV, Boston, MA; Gypsy Heart with Omayra Amaya; El Show de Fernandito and in theatre for Blood Wedding by Double Edge Theatre, Boston, MA. My teaching experience is with the Gilford Public Library, Gilford, NH; Flamenco Summer Session 2018 at the Studio at Meredith Bay; Sevillanas Concurso de Rosa, Gilford, NH; Faustino Rios Spanish Dance Academy, Maynard, MA; Concord Academy, Concord, MA; The Middlesex School, Concord, MA. My training in classical dance and Flamenco began at the age of five. I have been fortunate to study Flamenco with Farruquito (Montoya), Ramon de los Reyes, Clara Ramona, Omayra Amaya, Rogelio Rodriguez, Maria Magdalena (Madrid), Nino de los Reyes, Isaac de los Reyes, Luisa Triana, Jesus Carmona and Lucia Campillo.
Students should practice steps and movements at least three times a week for optimal dance experience.
If available, a hard wood surface would help in the production of sound. Character shoes or shoes with a small heel would also help with sound production. Girls should wear a leotard or form fitting top, have a long skirt that is light and can move freely. Boys should have a form fitted t-shirt and exercise pants for easy movement.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
1 hour 40 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
Learners should have an open workout space, wear a leotard or fitted top, proper footwear and a water bottle. If your child has long hair, it should be pulled back into a ponytail or bun. Students are responsible for listening to their bodies and should discontinue a movement if it feels uncomfortable to prevent injuries.
