trivedi234 -> Opinion on fundacion cristina heeren (Apr. 6 2015 20:41:11)

Dear mates

I am trying to take a leap from intermediate to advance level. So far I have taken individual lessons from the Rafel cortes camp in Germany and micelleneous encounters online. Now I am planning to join the cirstina herren fundacion in seville this september since that is the only structured course that I could find, coupled with the possibility to move to seville for one year since I am duing on my current job and have no concrete job plan further.
Since I would be investing a lot of time and money (if a part time job is not found) I would like to know if its worth to opt for it. I am still not able to figure out wether its better to continue the way I am learning right now or better off in a structural coure with a diploma at the end.
As far as technique is concerned I am super good at some (tremolo) and intermediate at others (triplet, picado), and all in all I have a good understanding of the basic compass solea buleria and tangos by now, all I lack is a repertoire and philosophy of falsetas, unlike playing random things and most imp cante accompaniment.
Wat I like about this course is that I would be working with singers which is really important I guess towards understanding flamenco inside out. Simultaneously I fear that practcig in group might be cacophonous and doing it on daily basis might seem too much at some point. Which is why I need opinion from those who have experience at cristina herren or who knows how things might go there, eventhough I know this topic is discussed in the forum before (apologies admin[:D]) still I would like to have fresh views, for my case.

I haven't studied there myself but a top dancer I know that lives in Sevilla and surely knows the good places to study recommended Cristina Heeren when I told her I'd be going to Spain. I also know they have top quality instruction and that some of the best local players are graduates as well.

I can't really add anything to that since I have no personal experience but honestly I'd trust the dancer that recommended this so if I ever have to make the decision it will be a no-brainer.
