All of this information from “Flamenco for Groups” is designed for students with no prior knowledge of flamenco. This group could choose between practical exposure or theoretical and practical knowledge of the world of flamenco. Our experience in this type of group class ranges from small groups of two or three students to groups of more than sixty students, taught by several instructors.
Flamenco for groups
Designed for more than 10 students
Flamenco for student groups
This is the most popular course among our clients. In these classes, we begin by teaching a rhythm for tangos or rumbas with examples of some flamenco songs. First, students learn the rhythm with the help of clapping. They then perform simple and muted clapping exercises. We also learn body position and basic hip, arm, and hand movements.
We also teach some basic footwork and heel movements. A short choreography is developed from everything learned, which is repeated several times. These initial sessions usually last between one and two hours, depending on the group’s preferences.
The purpose of these flamenco sessions is to have a fun time while also learning the basics of flamenco. At the end of the class, we usually do some improvisation exercises for rumbas to put everything learned into practice.
Flamenco for Congress groups
With flamenco for groups, you can take a break and experience something truly Andalusian and Sevillian, while also learning a little flamenco.
We are located very close to the Seville Conference Center.
We often book with companies that participate in conferences and want to learn about Sevillian culture. Meanwhile, our students have fun and relax from the intensity of a conference. We are available at any time.
Deeper knowledge of flamenco
These flamenco classes are both theoretical and practical. We’ll guide you through flamenco culture and introduce you to its most basic techniques and rhythm so you can gain a deeper understanding of flamenco.
All this information is shared with the student, who can touch and observe all the details and features.
First, you’ll learn what flamenco shoes are like, how to use them, the different types of strokes, and the teacher will give you a live demonstration.
Afterwards, you’ll see all the accessories used in flamenco, how to wear them, and what types of dances they’re used for. These accessories include: the Cordoban hat, combs, castanets, the Pericón fan, the shawl, flowers, earrings, and more.
Next, we’ll develop rhythm exercises, primarily for tangos and rumbas. We’ll also do footwork without the need for special footwear. We’ll move our arms, hands, and hips to the rhythm of the music.
And at the end of the class, we’ll be led into a short choreography that will make your first encounter with flamenco a fun and unforgettable experience.
So, don’t miss this opportunity to experience flamenco from the best professionals.

The Sevillanas
These are other classes highly requested by our students. Students learn the structure of sevillanas, the passes, the turns, the basic steps, and even dance the first complete sevillana to the music. All of this takes place in a lively and fun atmosphere.
If you’d like to learn more about sevillanas, you can find more information here.
Sevillanas is a folk song that has been flamencoized and comes from the seguiriya. It is currently very popular and is danced at all fairs, pilgrimages, and festivals. It is a couple’s dance and consists of four verses or four sevillanas, called first, second, third, and fourth.
Each sevillana has a fixed choreography divided into three distinct parts. In all of them, the beginning (paseíllo) and end (vuelta) are repeated, as is the pass (which is used to connect one part with another and cross paths with your partner). Its time signature is simple, ¾, with three beats in which the first beat is emphasized, and its theme is usually an exaltation of Andalusian culture, and in particular, of Seville. There are several styles: rocieras, fair, corraleras, liturgical, boleras… It is usually accompanied by clapping and/or castanets.
Hen parties dancing flamenco

You can dance both sevillanas and some beginner flamenco. Rumbas and tangos are the most popular styles in these fun flamenco classes.
The entire class is held in a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, yet with a pedagogical focus. Have fun while you learn!
Learn to play the flamenco cajon
Group flamenco rhythm class using the flamenco cajon. This time, a group of employees from the same company traveled to Seville to explore the city and immerse themselves in its culture, so they found it very interesting to do so using the flamenco cajon. It was a challenge to gather 25 flamenco cajons and transport them to the class location, but it was worth it.
