BEGINNERS FLAMENCO for ages 7+
With Joanne Bockemuehl-Jackson
This class introduces dancers to all the basic aspects of Flamenco. Dancers will get a taste of the challenge of flamenco and explore the spirit of the dance form while bonding with each other. Weekly classes will focus on footwork (as a percussion instrument), arm movement and upper body coordination. With consistent attendance, students will begin to develop the muscular strength, movement skills, artistic nuance and musicality necessary for flamenco dance.
Thursdays 5-6pm
September 12 – December 12
(No class October 31 or November 28)
$240 for the full session
