Welcome to Deva Flamenco - new focus during COVID-19 - flamenco via Zoom!
We plan to re-start live classes from 17th May - at the earliest.
About Us
Since 1997 Deva Flamenco, a voluntary community group, has held weekly flamenco dance classes on Tuesday evenings and occasional workshops in Chester in flamenco, Sevillanas or Gypsy dancing.
We have given dance shows, including at Storyhouse, "have a go at flamenco" sessions, workshops at primary schools and Christine gives Story of Flamenco illustrated
presentations.
We want to continue bringing an appreciation and love of flamenco to our local region - Cheshire, North Wales, Wirral.
Currently through Zoom classes, we are keeping fit, learning new dances and practising our existing dances
- it seems 17th May will be the earliest when we can dance together again!
Classes
During the Covid 19 crisis we are offering virtual weekly classes on Tuesdays online over Zoom.
Please note - no class on the Tuesday after Easter.
This may be the chance you have been waiting for to learn flamenco in your own home!
Special classes for new beginners from 6pm to 6.45pm - basics of flamenco plus learning some great dances.
Our usual class - other dancers welcome - from 7.00 pm to 8.30 pm - warmup, revision of our dances, castanets practice and new choreographies.
