Spanish + Flamenco course
Seville is the heart of Flamenco and a Spanish + Flamenco course is a great way to combine two exciting studies.
Flamenco is made up of the song (cante), the dance (baile), the guitar (toque) and extra elements of rhythmic accompaniment, such as handclapping (palmas), finger snapping (pitos), tongue clicking and even knuckle bashing on a tabletop. Castanets - a Spanish-classical influence - are also played in some dances and performers often shout words of encouragement known as jaleo. There are different types of songs like bulerìas , fandango, colombiana, soleà, alegrìas, sevillanas, tangos…
Babylon Idiomas Sevilla works together with one of the most renowned Flamenco academies in the city. The program consists of the regular 20 hours intensive Spanish course + 5 hours of small group or individual Flamenco dance classes.
Learn to dance Flamenco
Flamenco dance is suitable for people of all ages and no prior dance training is required.
- Beginner classes cover the basics of flamenco technique as well as popular Spanish and flamenco dances
- Elementary classes are designed for people with some flamenco dance training and builds on technique already learned at beginner level
- Students at Intermediate and Advanced standard have significant training in flamenco dance and are challenged with more complex rhythms and choreography.
The course price also includes a ticket for one of the best traditional Flamenco shows in Seville , demonstrating the interplay of artistic expression through song, dance and guitar.
From Monday through Friday you will therefore have 4 hours of Spanish classes and 1 hour of Flamenco class each day.
The Spanish + Flamenco course is open for every level and you can take the course for as long as you want.
You will need to buy special Flamenco shoes which you will easily find in the city. A colourful skirt or sharp looking suit is entirely optional :)
