Join me as I bring my decades of dance experience to a beginner-friendly choreography class designed to put rhythm in your feet and a smile on your face. • We’ll start with introductions before easing into a gentle warmup with some stretches and clapping, focusing on our posture and rhythm and helping us connect with the spirit of Spanish dance. • Next, we’ll dive into foundational techniques, practicing graceful arm positions and footwork like the golpe and the planta. We’ll layer these elements together, building coordination, balance, and confidence to the beat of authentic Spanish music. • Finally, we’ll put it all into practice with a choreographed number that’s rooted in the historic culture of Spain. After a calming cool-down, you’ll leave with some new skills and a deeper connection to one of Spain’s historic pastimes.
