children's classes:
Children may join ages 4-5, depending on their abilities. There are three levels, and when children advance past the third level they go into adult's classes. Children are encouraged to perform. We feel it is important to start dancing at an early age because it helps internalise the rhythms, develops co-ordination and self-esteem. It is also a great opportunity for children to make new friends.
More details are available on the Children's Dance and Drama School page.
new beginners classes:
This course is designed for complete beginners. No previous dance experience is needed.
beginners 1 and 2 classes:
Students at level 1 should have at least 6 months experience
with flamenco dance classes. Beginners 2 classes are one semester
ahead in the choreography.
elementary, intermediate and advanced classes:
Elementary classes are for those who have danced flamenco for at least one year. There are three levels of Elementary classes.
Intermediate classes are for those who have danced for at least 3 years, and who have an understanding of most flamenco compas.
Advanced classes are suitable for dancers with a solid background in flamenco dance and with strong technique and style.
Professional classes are for those at performance level.
technique classes:
LowerTechnique is suitable for those at the Elementary levels.
Intermediate Technique/Choreography is for those at a very high level.
Advanced Technique/Choreography is for those at Advanced and Professional levels.
These classes improve speed and style, footwork, palmas, arms, stance, body movement, turns, and understanding some of the many different flamenco rhythms (compas) and contratiempo (syncopation).

Quote from a student
"Dancing flamenco makes me feel powerful, sexy and passionate.
Living in London can be stressful and frustrating - going to a
class after a working day reinvigorates me and makes me feel alive
again"
