Study Classical Spanish Flamenco Dance in Winnipeg
The popularity of flamenco dancing has spread around the world with its origins tracing back centuries in Spain. At the Institute of Dance, we’re proud to offer Winnipeg dancers instruction in both classical Spanish flamenco style and 18th-century Bolero Pericet style. Our adult flamenco classes are designed to explore cantinas with an abanico (fan). We pride ourselves on offering customized instruction through small class sizes.
