This offers women and men a challenging opportunity to learn authentic Flamenco dance moves while building up endurance and strengthening hands, arm and feet coordination. It is choreographed into a systematic, effective, artistic, professional Flamenco workout for both high and low impact. It is broken down into three main workout segments. Part One - Warm up: The program begins with a "Flamenco Floreo" exercise, essential to the Spanish Dance. It also focuses on neck exercises, knee bends, ankle flexes, lunges, and side stretches. Part Two - Footwork: Flexing the foot and striking the floor with the ball of the foot, then bringing down the heel to make two separate sounds - known as the Classic Flamenco Toe-Heel Step and Sound. Then, you learn how to embellish the Toe-Heel dance steps with combinations of arms and footwork. Part Three - The Spanish Jota: The Jota is the name of a regional dance in Spain, with many variations. Learning and practicing the Jota with us will help improve your endurance as it naturally requires cardio-vascular progression. Ballet terms and techniques are used to teach these specialized movements properly. The dance leader is Master Spanish Dancer, Eva Amador. She is joined by Reina Contreras and Ricardo Ramirez. All are of the Flamenco dance group, Cuadro Espanol. The guest dancer is Amanda. Produced and Directed by Dr. Tomas Martinez. (Cover art may vary) 40 mins. (2004/2005) DVD-All-Region.
