How does the singer know exactly when to start? No secret backstage meeting required! Meet the llamada and discover the little exchange happening between the dancer and the musicians.

Flamenco can feel like six conversations happening at once. 😂 The good news? Your ears don’t need to follow all of them. Here’s what to listen for instead.

You knew the choreography five minutes ago. Then the music started. 😅 If your carefully practised steps have ever mysteriously vanished the moment you actually had to dance them, there may be more going on than a dodgy memory.

Singer sings. Dancer does something. Everybody responds. ¡Olé! Meanwhile, you’re wondering if there was a secret Bulerías memo you somehow missed. There wasn’t. Let’s look at how this whole apparent telepathy thing works.

Ever watched a flamenco performance where the whole cuadro seemed to know EXACTLY what was about to happen… except you? Relax. You didn’t miss the secret pre-show meeting. There are clues – and you can learn to recognise them too.

You can count to 12. That's a given. Then the actual flamenco music starts and apparently the 12 has entered witness protection. 😆 Here’s why counting the compás and hearing where you are are two different skills – and what to practise instead.

Practising your footwork but feel like you’ve hit a brick wall? Your feet might not actually be the problem. Here’s a ridiculously simple 2-minute exercise to try for 7 days — and it doesn’t involve learning a single new footwork combination. Your supporting leg will finally get some attention. 😂

Falling hopelessly in love with flamenco is the easy part. Then come the questions nobody mentioned when you bought the shoes. 😂 See if you recognise yourself in these four very familiar stages of learning flamenco.

Choreography is useful. Absolutely. But what happens when the singer does something you didn’t rehearse? 👀 Let’s talk about why knowing your steps and understanding what’s happening are two very different things.

If every escobilla feels a bit like a multiple-choice exam, this one's for you. Let's talk about why hearing the compás is so difficult – and why it doesn't have to stay that way.

Think you'll never really "get" flamenco? This blog post explains why most dancers aren't missing rhythm—they've simply never been taught what to listen for.

Can you count the compás... but still find yourself getting lost once you stop counting? Here's why counting and hearing are two very different skills—and why learning to recognise the compás is a skill every flamenco dancer eventually needs.

Have you been blaming your rhythm when the real problem is something else? Discover why knowing what to listen for can change everything in Bulerías.

Let me tell you about a move that happens in flamenco classes all over the world.

If you're getting lost in the compás, surely the answer is to count more carefully. Isn't it?

Whenever I create a new course, I spend just as much time thinking about who it isn't for as who it is.

Have you ever looked at another dancer for clues because you weren’t entirely sure where you were in the compás?

If you dance flamenco then you know there are certain things that only other flamenco dancers truly understand

If you’re new to Tangos, you don’t need to learn everything at once. You just need a clear starting point.

Not because you're doing anything wrong...
