Program 
This lovely but difficult basque dance (Northern Spain) is a nice challenge for advanced dancers. Most of the challenge is in the dexterity of the feet and in the transitions between the different parts. The fandango -a dance with four figures on a 3 beat music - is always followed by an arin arin, with comparable steps, but on music in two times. Both dances are danced in pairs or in small circles. Koen teaches a 2 day workshop fandango on 31st of May and 1st of June.
  • Basic steps and style of arin arin on slow music
  • Transitions between the figures, with attention for the musical structure
  • Why do dancers who never really learned the dance, start to the wrong side after the second part? 
  • Gradually we will speed up the music
  • Differentiation: A difficult variation for each of the figures, for those who already master the basic steps  (bonus)

Practical info about this on line workshop
A Google Meet link will be send by e-mail at 10h. Check your spam if you don't receive the link and add "contact@frissefolk.be" as a safe mail address.

The workshop will be recorded by Frisse Folk and that movie will be shared for a limited time with all the participants. It is forbidden to share this movie with other people in any way.

NEW: Due to the delay between image and sound in the video conference, Koen can hardly give individual feed back during the workshop. We therefore provide the possibility of short individual feed back via whatsapp / short video recordings in the afternoon.
