I Can Flamenco : Beginner Dance Workshop with Ana Garcia 

Rebecca Maunder

This was such a fun session and Ana is clearly such an expert. I would recommend I Can Dance session to everyone. They're really inclusive and friendly. 

Jan Patrick

A fun morning learning the basics of flamenco. I’ll definitely go to future classes. 

Margaret Hordley

First taste of Flamenco. Ana's vibrant personality made it all very enjoyable, and her teaching method allowed me come away feeling that I had done some authentic Flamenco. Ole!

Liz Jones Lewis

Fun workshop, as always! Ana is a great teacher and having a guitarist made it feel authentic for us flamenco beginners.

Sally Maddox

I love flamenco and thought it would be great to get a taste of the dance style locally as there are no classes in Shrewsbury area. The session was good and I found the different sections did come together in the end however, I did think we were still learning when the session suddenly ended; it would've been good to end with a loud musical tune to do our complete routine to feel like I'd achieved something and as a proper fin-Olè   ;)

Lynn Key

I really enjoyed the Flamenco Workshop and hope there'll be many more. Everything was explained and demonstrated well. I loved learning the steps/beats  and especially liked doing the beautiful arm and hand movements. Highly recommend!

Irene Mills

Excellent workshop - wonderful teacher.  Ana explained and demonstrated the steps clearly. It was an exhilirating experience.

Faye Lorente Shyllon

Fantastic work shop with the legendary teacher Ana Garcia, she put together an excellent class . We got to experience an impressive and comprehensive insight into dancing the Tango's, with some success! 

It was brilliant - everything was well explained and demonstrated by Ana and the whole workshop atmosphere was great too. I'd love to do more!

Alan Rutter

Really enjoyable. Until yesterday, I only had a vague idea what flamenco dancing is, now I'm a little wiser. I didn't realize it is such fun. Looking forward to when Ana comes again. 

Sue Price

This is my second flamenco class with Ana and if there are more, I shall definitely sign up. 
She’s a fantastic teacher with an engaging personality and a very clear teaching style, giving instructions that are easy to follow. She broke the moves down in such a way that meant we were able to progress quite quickly and perform a routine. She interspersed dance instructions with some background history and also reasons for certain types of moves which gave us a better understanding of flamenco.
It was a bonus having a live guitarist. 

Helen Evason

A fun and engaging workshop. 
It was a joy to attend. 

Paula Greyling

Jackie  Glennane 

Had such fun! Friendly crowd and added bonus of Anna Garcia. She was marvellous 👏 

Lianne Hayley

An excellent beginners workshop on Flamenco dance. Thank you to Ana for her superb instruction and Sarah for organising it.  Please do another as I would love to continue the journey.

Christine Robertson

Great fun despite only been a few times . Unable to keep going just now due to husband going into hospital for surgery but will be back. 

A really good class again. Excellent tuition and fun. It made me realize how skillful and lovely Flamenco dancing is. It's a pity more men don't try to learn to keep fit and to keep the mind active. It's much better and more fun than the gym or squash.

Teresa Rapson

Great fun, good steady pace and suited all levels. 

Excellent tuition by Ana, thank you Sarah for organising.

Wendy Brisbourne

The Flamenco workshop was very enjoyable and we learnt a lot of steps which created a routine as well as finding out how the style is created.  

Sue Dewhurst

I really enjoyed the workshop with Ana Garcia. It was the right level of challenging - kept me absolutely fully-focused and not quite able to keep up! Sarah was really welcoming, and I appreciated Ana's informal style and good humour. She made it fun and was great at boosting confidence and reassuring us that we didn't need to be perfect. 

Linda Izquierdo 

What a way to spend at Saturday morning. ❤️ Ana is such an amazing flamenco dancing teacher simply fantastic. Muchas Gracias 🙏🏻
