¡Ta-rrria-pi-ta!

​

Learn to play LOS PALILLOS.

 

Learn the beautiful rhythms you can create with castanets!

 

Castanets are a percussive instrument used in both the Flamenco and Spanish Dance repertoire. In this class students will learn proper upper body posture and the basic skills to gradually create the carretilla (roll sound), proper golpes (single strike), and choques (one castanet against the other).

 

While Beginners learn to coordinate simple arm movements and marking, those with more experience will forge ahead learning short choreographic phrases for Fandangos, Seguiriya and of course Sevillanas.

Note:

•Castanets are available for purchase at the studio.

•Souvenir quality castanets or toy castanets are not permitted.
