Milagros Herguedas, who is Subject Leader for Spanish at Collyer’s, was delighted: “Music and dance heritage is part of the Spanish A level course at Collyer’s. Amongst the many styles, Flamenco is the most associated to Spanish culture.
“I was incredibly impressed by our students’ focus and willingness to try a new experience, so much so that they were able to take on a challenging choreography by the end of the session. They certainly learnt how to stand proud and release energy by stamping their feet to create complex rhythms.”

Milagros added: “Ana is an enormously gifted dancer, who is always so generous with her time and energy! Her sessions have really helped to give the students a vital insight into Spanish culture.”
