No dance experience? No problem. Just bring your curiosity, an open heart, and a desire to move.

The beautiful movement of the hands and arms — full of grace and expression
Rhythmic footwork (zapateado) that builds coordination, strength, and timing
Clapping and rhythm (compás) — the heartbeat of flamenco
Basic flamenco steps (marcajes) and simple combinations to tie it all together
A beginner-friendly choreography to bring everything into motion

What to Wear

For both men and women. Wear comfortable clothing — even your street clothes will do!

No flamenco skirt required — though you’re welcome to dress flamenco-style if it inspires you.
All you truly need is energy and enthusiasm.
