Phoenix Clan proudly presents:Hear the Siren Call! Basics of Fan Dialect by the Siren Project, featuring Elena Sapega!
Both in person and online via Zoom!
The fan is one of the most popular dance props in many dance styles, such as Flamenco, Classical Ballet, traditional dances from Mexico, China and many others. For several years, dancing with a fan has also captivated dancers of FCBD® Inspired dialects. The Siren Project Fan Dialect is today's most commonly known one among them, since it's also the most structured and has the largest step vocabulary of all.
During this weekend, Elena Sapega, a certified teacher and international representative of the Siren Project Fan Dialect, will introduce you to this magical style of FCBD® Inspired dialects. We will take 6 hours on two days to familiarise ourselves with the general characteristics of Flamenco Fan as a dance prop (proper holding positions, basic lines and dynamics, opening and closing the fan smoothly) as well as with basic steps of both slow and fast vocabulary.

If you have no previous experience with the Fan Dalect, we recommend that you take all three workshops starting with workshop one. Since it's not always easy to predict the learning tempo of each group, the aforementioned contents of each workshop are not definitive. These are just meant to give you a rough overview of each workshop topic. Please note that, depending on many unforeseeable factors, these contents are subject to change.
Please bring a notebook, water, and a large flamenco fan (28-32 cm long). If you don't have a fan, you can borrow one for the duration of the workshops.
