Sevillanas compas - help!

Hi

The beginners dance class I am accompanying in Liverpool has started to learn sevillanas.

My experience is limited so could anyone suggest a simple compas for me to use?

Thanks

I first learned the 3 from the Juan Martin book, then the Paco Peña C major one that Sal Bonavita has in his videos. I later replaced the JM one in A-minor with
and A minor from Manuel Salado's solo compas album.

Ill get out of this structure eventually, but right now I like to play

Amaj, Amin, Cmaj, Ephr. I just replace one with a new one in the same key when its time to learn new material.

FYI- one everyone starts hearing the A major in the JM book, They get dissapointed if you stop using it.
