When you think of Spain, what’s the soundtrack? For us it’s the pulsing foot stamps and strumming guitars of flamenco.
If you’re looking to get in on the action there are a number of options for taking flamenco classes in Madrid. From traditional dance schools to modern studios, there are tons of great classes to try. Here are three flamenco schools where you’ll be able to get inside the soul of Spanish music. Each school allows you to take individual classes and in some, English is spoken—so strap on your flamenco shoes and get ready to dance!
Amor de Dios, Flamenco Arts and Spanish Dance Center
Perhaps the most well known Flamenco school, Amor de Dios, sits above the bustling Anton Martin market. It is the oldest flamenco school in central Madrid and many of the most famous international performers have passed through its halls. The school offers classes for all levels taught by Flamenco masters from around Spain. You’ll be instantly immersed in the passion and drama of flamenco. Drop-ins are welcome and there are classes scheduled throughout the day.
