Flamenco You Can Do It!
Dance Today! Samba
Bollywood Dance
One of the oldest and most traditional dances of Spain, Sevillanas are the Flamenco dance of the people. Both men and women learn it in childhood. Sevillanas are a colorful, social, partner dance that Spaniards dance when they are among their own, and at celebrations. Sevillanas are also popular as part of the repertoire of Flamenco shows presented on the stage. In the first choreography, Puela Lunaris teaches you the Sevillanas in the traditional popular style. The second choreography presents them as a performing art, using the fan to enhance the visual effect of Sevillanas performance. Here Puela will teach you the Spanish fan technique, which you can apply in any other fan dance as well. You also learn how to use your fan in connection with the Sevillanas dance steps.
