Summer Workshops
Summer FLAMENCO Workshops with amazing teachers Monika Hatcher, Kristy Manuel and Victoria Townsend.
*** PLEASE NOTE - the palmas and cajón workshop is now full. ***
Workshop 1: Palmas & Cajón (with Monika Hatcher)
These workshops will run over two days an hour per day. Each one hour session will include a range of fun and groovy palmas (hand clapping) and cajón (flamenco drumming) techniques. No experience with cajón or palmas is needed and you do not need your own cajón we will have them available for you to use during the workshop. All levels welcome!
Workshop 2: Mantón (shawl) Technique & Sevillanas Flamencas with Mantón (with Kristy Manuel)
Offered over two days for 1.5 hours per day enjoy learning an exquisite and unique Sevillanas with mantón. This Sevillanas is quite different and very 'Flamenca' (rather than the classic Sevillanas we are often taught first) and will take your mantón technique to the next level!
We will start each session with the essential mantón technique needed to dance the choreography then enjoy the beautiful experience of dancing with the mantón.
No mantón needed as we have mantóns we can lend for the duration of the workshop if you have registered prior - please let us know if you need to borrow one. All levels welcome from experienced beginners up for workshop 2!
Workshop 3: Kids' Flamenco Dance (with Victoria Townsend)
This is a wonderful one off introductory workshop taught by a passionate and experienced teacher which nurtures the creativity and confidence of kids aged approximately 7-12 years (flexible dependant on individual child). They will have a taster of the rhythms and movements of flamenco to fun and inspiring music.
No dance or flamenco expedience needed for the kids workshop.
