Thank you very much for showing interest in this activity.
The Spanish Experience is a day trip in which schools come to us to enjoy a dance workshop and an authentic Spanish Tapas lunch at a Spanish/Latin restaurant while watching a flamenco show.
Please see below the description of the activities and the tapas menu.
A flamenco dance workshop
in a dance studio accompanied to live or recorded music.
Students will learn the basic flamenco moves and a short dance sequence.
This workshop can be carried out fully in Spanish or using some Spanish words if requested. All our workshops are taught by highly experience authentic flamenco artists.
The venue is within walking distance, between 5 and 20 min, from the restaurant, as we use a number of venues depending on group size and availability we can let you know how long the walk will take when we liaise with you.
If the flamenco dance workshop is booked without the meal we will do a dance display show as part of the workshop.
We also offer castanets, cajón (percussion), dance with a shawl or a fan, singing and Spanish language workshops.
