A Spanish Flamenco Dance and Music Workshop or Residency

Carlota Santana Spanish Dance Company
Program Type: Workshop/Residency

A Spanish Flamenco Dance and Music Workshop or Residency

Our residency programs focus on developing students’ poise, social skills and perseverance  through the teaching of the technique and skills of flamenco dance and music. Our program exposes students to the rich history and culture of this Hispanic art form aligning with standards in ELA, Literacy, History and Social Science. The program begins with a professional Company performance for all students and ends in a culminating activity where students demonstrate their learning with a performance in full flamenco costumes (provided by the company). Specific program content is decided by the school staff and company artists jointly to respond to the needs of the specific student group.  Our TAs are also trained to work with students with disabilities and dual language populations.  Residencies can serve up to 5 classrooms with four sessions each (a dancer and musicians in every session). Single workshops are also available and can accommodate up to 30 students each.
