Taking flamenco classes in Spain is an ideal way to compliment your Spanish course. Flamenco is an internationally recognized art form that was declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO in 2010.
Originating in Andalusia, flamenco origins can be traced back to the fusion of various musical styles by the gypsies who have propelled the preservation and dissemination of flamenco around the world.
The flamenco course in Spain will introduce students to the song, dance and music that make up this artistic expression. Discover the passion and wide range of emotions that are expressed by the performer through complex techniques of foot stomping and hand clapping.
The flamenco course is taught at an academy by professional flamenco dance teachers who will adapt to your dance level whether you have studied flamenco in the past or not. The content is flexible and can be adapted to students' schedules and language level.
don Quijote offers salsa dancing classes as an extracurricular course so that our students can embrace one of the most famous dances in the world and immerse themselves in the local rhythm.
Originating from a fusion of Cuban and Caribbean styles, over time salsa has incorporated African percussion, American jazz, the Spanish guitar and other Latin American influences. The result is a dynamic, spicy, energetic and intense music that can also be slow, sensual and romantic. Salsa is normally danced with a partner but can also be danced alone.
The term “salsa” is an umbrella term used to describe many different genres of salsa including mambo, guaracha, son montuno, bolero and chachachá from Cuba as well as many non-Cuban beats such as bomba, plena, merengue and cumbia. Salsa is is highly known throughout the world, especially in Latin America and the United States. It has also become widely popular in countries like Germany, Israel, Spain, Japan, Portugal, France, Italy, and many more.
The salsa course will be taught by a professional dance teacher and will adapt to the students’ dance and Spanish levels. Please note that salsa dance lessons are often given in the late evening and soft-soled comfortable shoes are required.

Puerto de la Cruz es la segunda ciudad turística más grande de la isla con alojamiento para alrededor de 30,000 turistas. En contraste con los modernos resorts del sur, El Puerto ha tenido una gran tradición como lugar de relajación desde finales del siglo pasado, cuando se construyó el spa, que hoy es el Hotel Casino Tauro.
It was my first experience in Tenerife at Don Quijote. The class was very small (6 students) from different countries. The teachers were very friendly and helpful. The school is locared in a fantastic location near the beach. The only problem was to walk in in the city centre because of the morpholy of the island that represent a problem for middlle aged students.

I was immediately impressed by the building, which opened up into a cute little courtyard, which was encircled by numerous bright and airy classrooms. During breaks it was easy to pop out to grab a bite to eat or a coffee, but there was also a common room with sofas, tables and a coffee machine for those wanting to stay in the school.
Class sizes were small, with around 6 people per class. The teachers were friendly and set a relaxed tone to the class. I personally would have preferred a more conversation-based class, as I found they were often based around worksheets that sometimes felt a little rigid, with not much room to discuss and speak openly. However the material was interesting and I learned lots; not only did my Spanish improve but I learned a lot about Canarian and Spanish culture.
There were many extra activities planned throughout the week that I was unfortunately unable to attend but had I been at the school longer than a week I definitely would have participated.
Overall I had an extremely enjoyable experience at Don Quijote and would definitely return.
The teachers that I met were all very motivated and really wanted to help us in learning. I liked the way they encouraged everybody to speak and chat in Spanish. And they were so patient with all our mistakes!
The location was perfect, close to the lively sea shore boulevard. I did not participate in the cultural activities (films etc.) because they were conducted immediately after the lessons and by that time I was tired and hungry and wanted to have a break. But the other activities like Salsa lessons, wine tasting etc. were well organised and nice!
Especially, I enjoyed the trip to Teide and the tour guide, with all the funny stories!
I arranged my housing by myself, not via the school.
When I got to the hotel that very first night in Tenerife, what happened was not exactly what was written in the instruction.
Actually there were three envelopes containing keys, none was showing my name.
Moreover the hotel receptionist was not informed of my arrival and I had to work alone and call the help office of the school, which I discovered to be in Madrid rather than in Tenerife, so the girl in the help office had to call Tenerife herself.
After a couple of hours I managed to get a hold of the Landlord who came a bit later to deliver the key of the apartment.
I also had to take another taxi very late at night as the place was not really nearby.
In the end it was ok.
