Sevillanas: Intro to Spanish Dance

Similar in style to flamenco dancing, Sevillanas is a popular social dance from southern Spain. This dance, which is performed in pairs but can be learned alone, is most commonly found at the Feria de Sevilla and at social gatherings. Sevillanas is accompanied by folk songs from Seville, and incorporates many different moves, techniques, and choreography. This class will focus on learning Sevillanas by breaking down both footwork and armwork. You will be introduced to the Andalusian (Southern Spanish) culture, learn a fun social dance, and experience the beautiful Sevillanas music. This class is also a great way to learn the basics of flamenco.

 NOTE: No class Wednesday, January 20. So, class will run until Wednesday, February 24.
