La Magdalena
Do you remember the Flamenco dancer we met last year? La Magdalena is teaching new classes for kids and adults this fall. She sends this invitation to her adult beginner classes, and there’s information below on her kids’ classes:
Come Fall for Flamenco! Bring in the new school year with something completely different, the art of Andalucía! Absolute beginners are welcome and there is live guitar, OLE! Please mention Forest Hills Connection for half off your first class. Look forward to seeing you at the studio.

Flamenco 4 Kids!
Age 4-7 – Tuesdays from 4 to 5 p.m.
Age 8-11 Tuesdays from 5 to 6 p.m.
At any age Flamenco is a lot more than just dance. But for young children it can be a unique outlet for self-expression. Classes carefully balance discipline with fun and independence. A parent peeking in on a class might see students learning to stand tall and proud or stomping in unison with the flamenco beat. Or perhaps they are practicing their new footwork, met with a final, triumphant shout,… “¡OLE!”
Dates: Tuesdays, September 13 to December 13
Price: $286
Location: The Dance Loft at 14th; 4618 14th Street NW, Loft Level
Registration: please contact flamenco4kids@gmail.com
