Flamenco Completo
Dance, Guitar, and Singing - all in one workshop!
Ulrika Frank (flamenco dancer) and Marija Temo (flamenco guitarist and singer), each known for their informative teaching styles, have collaborated to offer a complete workshop experience that unites dancers, guitarists, and singers in the same class. Flamenco Completo is unique in that the workshop focuses on the structure of letras (verses of flamenco singing), how the structure varies, and is improvised in different ways.
Dancers are given choreography to letras, guitarists learn to accompany both the letras and the dance simultaneously, and singers are taught letras with melodic and structural changes. While accompanying one another, dancers and guitarists will realize and learn the adjustments needed in order to interpret the variations that occur in the singing.
Flamenco Completo will enhance your awareness to listen, react, and respond.
Further details regarding dates, hours, and locations for the Flamenco Completo US tour TBA.

Llamadas/Remates/Cierres – when/where/how/why in the verse/letra? Learn when you can reply with a remate, where the llamada starts, how to close the letra, why you cannot use feet anywhere you want. If everybody involved on a flamenco stage can improvise, follow, and lead each other, that means that they all know when /where/how/why. During this workshop, I will teach you various llamadas, remates and cierres, and show how you can use them to different kind of music.

the dance a dynamic piece. It is usually not sung, but may start with
some kind of introductory part of singing. The workshop will contain of
1 hr. of technique to learn e.g. the Farruca escobillas, and 1 hr. of
pure choreography, mixed with teaching the structure of the dance.
Guitarists are welcome to register for an audit
fee of half the original price, $18.
