History

Established in 2003.

Flamenco Chicago was created to allow women (and men) to experience the art of flamenco dance as a way to express their deepest emotions and enhance the presence, self-​confidence, and power they have as human beings — in the art of dance and in their daily lives.

Flamenco Chicago Studio has become a nurturing and welcoming community of emerging dancers — most of whom have never formally studied dance before beginning classes here.

New class sessions at all levels begin every six weeks. We welcome you to visit our website to learn more. You’ll find answers to any questions you may have as well as performance videos and much more.

¡La vida es flamenco!
