Learning Flamenco Dancing in Spain

Should I Bother?

We’re in Spain at the moment and since we’ve only tried one form of dancing on this podcast to date, why not step into one of Spain’s many stereotypes while we’re here - Flamenco dancing! (Bullfighting is in the works, we promise!)

Here’s what to expect from this episode:

1. We talk about the history and origin of flamenco (unsurprising to most - it has zero to do with Flamingos)
2. We discuss what to wear, with zero castanets between us..
3. We play a game that’s “loosely” related to the topic (I added those inverted commas for good reason)
4. And we finish off by discussing our experience learning Flamenco dancing in a Cajón studio. A Cajón?! What’s that? A future episode is what it is! But if you can’t wait that long, it’s one of those boxes people sit on and use it as a drum.

So if any of that sounds interesting, or if you’ve ever spent two minutes looking at that dancing emoji woman in the red dress 💃 and wondered, “Is Flamenco dancing worth the bother?”

Listen to this episode and we’ll let you know.

Liked this episode or have a suggestion for something we should bother doing? We’d love your review!
