I had a wonderful time in Seville, learning to play the guitar in Flamenco style and the language in a group.
Terrific place. The lessons in guitar, dancing and Spanish were all of the highest quality. Great fun, very friendly and very reasonably priced.
The school is small enough to stay personal and the tuition is at a very high level from very experienced teachers of flamenco guitar. The school and the other attendees we met are passionate about flamenco. I would highly recommend this experience.
You can add accommodation to your booking in a shared apartment in the Macarena district with other students or Spanish locals for 6 nights.
You will have your own room and will share a kitchen and bathroom. Rooms are safe and clean and are located within a 10-15 minute walk of the school in the historic centre of Seville. The rooms are rented by locals so you will be staying with people who know the city very well. In some cases, the owner may rent more than one room so you may share the apartment with other students from the school. However, this is not guaranteed.
Bed sheets are provided but please remember to bring your own towels. Meals are not included but you can use the kitchen to prepare food. Prices include a small booking fee and are based on arrivals on the Sunday afternoon before your course starts and end on the Saturday morning after your course has finished. Check-in is anytime after 3pm on Sunday with check-out by 10am on Saturday morning.
