Fiesta Class with Ethan Margolis
September 25 & 26
San Diego
Price: $80
Due Sept 5th
Fiesta Class Improvisation, Cante and Compas
This class was created in order to get dancers, singers and guitarists comfortable and eventually spectacular in a typical "fiesta" setting; whether it be onstage or at a private party.
Ethan takes his students through a series of different styles of cante por Bulerias and teaches them the best way to adorn and then "rematar" the cante with their dancing or guitar.
Everyone in the class has the opportunity to dance to Ethan's guitar and cante. He then critiques each person individually giving them invaluable feedback that will transform their dancing.
Guitarists are encouraged to play throughout the class as Ethan teaches them how to best accompany the cante and support the dancing.
This class is invaluable to anyone who is truly interested in understanding the essence of flamenco. Under Ethan's guidance, students will learn how to capture and then transmit the essence of Gypsy-style flamenco.
After Sept 5th workshop price is $100. Please, no exceptions!
