About the class:

The first half of each class focuses on movement technique, footwork, alignment, and musicality. The second half of the class students will learn choreography and its underlying structure.

Repertory:

Colombianas with abanico (fan)

Students will need to bring their own fan to class. Abrepaso has some for sale and you can purchase them here. You’ll want a fan that is 9”.

Colombianas is part of the cantes de ida y vuelta (round-trip songs). It is a light hearted style in 4/4 time that is often danced with a fan or other prop.

The choreography will be set to this track.
