Flamenco and Sevillanas Lessons
Join authentic Spanish dance classes with Maria Robles. We offer weekly courses for both beginners and advanced students in Utrecht, The Hague and Amsterdam.
Flamenco Classes
Learn expressive flamenco technique. In these classes we work systematically on rhythmic footwork (zapateado), flowing arm movements (braceo), rhythm and timing (compás), and a proud posture.
Sevillanas Classes
Sevillanas is a festive, lively folk dance from Andalusia. In these classes you'll learn the four fixed parts (coplas) of this traditional couple's dance, including the correct timing, steps and coordination.
Locations in the Randstad
