FAO: English Forumites

Hey guys,

hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year - been rather busy finishing Uni work, so haven't been in here much.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a dance school around the NW (Manchester/Merseyside) which has flamenco classes using live musicians. It'd be great if I could find somewhere that'd let me go along and sit in on a couple of sessions just to get more of a feel for it all - it would also form the basis for my Uni fieldwork for this semester.

Any information would be great, and thanks in advance.

Hi there

Living in the West Yorkshire/Lancs area, I'm aware of the Pena Flamenco at Hebden Bridge. Check out the site....

I haven't plucked up the courage to go along/offer my services yet!

Deansgate? Noway.

I'm at Uni in Salford, so that's about a 5 minute walk.

Just bumping this, as the institute didn't have a clue re: anything flamenco.

Also, I'm planning to trek over for the hebden bridge pena Sunday week, most likely on my own, so if anyone off here is going and fancies meeting up that'd be cool.
