Flamenco is a Spanish art form made up of three parts: guitar playing (“guitarra”), song (“cante”), and dance (“baile”). Flamenco originated in the southern regions of Spain, but it’s thought to be influenced by many world cultures, including Latin American, Cuban, and Jewish traditions. This workshop series will focus on arm/hand gestures and fun stomping footwork combination. Enter the world of flamenco filled with passion, precision, and energy.Female students should wear a leotard or fitted top, skirt/fitted pants/exercise pants, and covered-toe shoes with a thick heel (preferred: character dance shoe or flamenco shoe). Male students should dress in comfortable clothing and wear short, flexible boots or hard-soled shoes.

Clinard Dance will share excerpts from their “Flamenco Quartet Project”. The Project maintains the traditional flamenco interplay between singer, guitar and dance but uses unique instrumentation and original composition to find new exponents of the form. Look forward to sharing the work with a great line up of artists including: violinist Steve Gibons, guitarist Marija Temo, percussionist/dancer Jose Moreno and dancer Wendy Clinard. Visit www.clinardance for a full description of the “Flamenco Quartet Project” and for performer’s bios.
