What our travellers are saying...

only wish i had stayed for longer than a weekend to learn more! Very authentic approach to flamenco dance...starting with rhythms and structure of the conversation between all the performers, very cool! And the dances that we learned were super accessible, even for the women in my class who weren't spanish speakers, we all helped each other out! amazing weekend, i will be back.

I Duran

An amazing experience. Everything, and more, I had been hoping for. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in flamenco dancing. All the dance staff were warm, welcoming, professional, and very talented. Loved it, --- thank you.
