Spanish Art of Flamenco is an 8-week dance program for 3rd graders.
Students will learn the footwork, hand-movements, arm-movements and rhythmic hand-clapping that Flamenco is known for. They also learn about the geography of Spain, its relation to the rest of Europe that was key in the creation and evolution of Flamenco. The program instills confidence in students as the become comfortable with their movements and prepare for a public performance in front of family, friends, and neighbors.
The class includes an interactive performance by members of the company so that students get to see professional Flamenco artists in-action. For the final performance, students will divide up the information into “Flamenco Fun-Facts” and take turns reciting it to the audience prior to the dance performance.
The program is presented by world-renowned and award-winning Flamenco dancer, choreographer and artistic director Rebeca Tomás.
Dates: 8 Tuesday : April 17 – June 5
Time: 4:00pm – 5:00pm

Bethany Arts Community is proud to announce the first of many Hispanic Dance and Music programs we’ll be bringing to the region. Join us for a family friendly presentation of rhythm and culture featuring two diverse groups of artists. This event brings you innovative Flamenco dance led by the award-winning Rebeca Tomás and modern Colombian music by world-renowned Folklore Urbano. These artists have performed in venues around the world and are excited to be sharing their talents with their Hudson Valley neighbors. The energy they bring to our performance space will get your hands clapping and your feet stomping, and make it hard to stay in your seats!
We are also delighted to announce that, soon after these artists are done entertaining you, they’ll be sharing their skills with our youngest neighbors. Both groups will be teaching Bethany’s first children’s programs offered to students of the Ossining School District. This is just the start of Bethany’s Hispanic Dance & Music program. Look out for more performances and classes in the future!
