Teo Morca's insights into flamenco are inspiring and instructive. A great flamenco gift!
A "must have" book for the flamenco bookshelf.

This book is dedicated to all people who seek a way—not the way, for there are many ways, but a way—a path to becoming the dance, to feel that dance of life, that communication of spirit, of life, of self.

The spirit of flamenco is the art of living each day to its fullest, physically, spiritually, emotionally and mentally as an individual and fulfilling your individuality as a unique creative expression of life.

The body expressing flamenco in movement and sound is communication with the heart, with the universe, in spirit, soul and in feelings that are feelings of truth and individuality.

Flamenco is the un-selfconscious joy, sorrow, passion, pain, growth, love, fear, fear of death, fear of not living the who that you are.

Teodoro Morca is recognized the world over as a master teacher, performer, choreographer, author and an authority on all facets of Flamenco and Spanish dance. He is now offering a DVD selection of his own method of approaching Flamenco technique, repertoire, interpretation and understanding of Flamenco dance. Morca shares his proven methods that he has worked out over many years of successful teaching. The bottom line is: they work!

Teodoro Morca explains his approach and philosophy in the opening DVDs and explains all of the materials that he teaches so that understanding of each technique is stressed. Morca's All Flamenco Workshops around the world have been done with great success and his methods of teaching have spoken for themselves in the people who have studied with him. They go away with an understanding of "a" way of studying the beautiful art of "FLAMENCO."

DVD 1. An introduction to Flamenco dance, using the 4-count rhythms of Tangos and other rhythms to understand total basic movement, and the 4-count compas in a variety of techniques to get the whole Flamenco body moving. In coordination, paseos, turns and dynamics, etc.

DVD 2. Is similar to DVD 1, but uses the rhythms of Soleares to introduce the 12-count rhythms. The key is total body movement with the understanding that the 4- and 12-count compas cover the majority of Flamenco compas. Interpretation is stressed, ole!

DVD 3. This DVD is dedicated to a total approach and understanding of the audible rhythms of handclapping (palmas) and footwork. This DVD shows many of the base techniques, a series of base redobles and the majority of footwork movements that are the building blocks of footwork: footwork is a musical instrument and that is the approach.

DVD 4. This is a general intermediate technique class DVD in all facets of Flamenco dance techniques. This DVD has a bit of everything.

DVD 5. Technique, using Alegrias for the movements and repertoire, includes: 4 coplas of Sevillanas, 4 coplas of Fandangos de Huelva, a Tango, a Rumba, and an introduction of Castanet techniques and Morca playing a Corelli Solo for Castanets.

DVD 6. This is an introduction to Bulerias, indispensable for those wanting to understand a great four--point approach to this great rhythm, plus Morca improvising Bulerias with two different guitarists.

* DVDs 1, 2, and 3 are a must and are great for Beginner-Intermediate dancers.

These are stories that I told to my children as they were growing up. In 1980 I self-published them with illustrations from Jane Mitchell, who captured the expressions and nuances of the story. I decided it was time to republish these stories for a new generation. The message in theses book is a timeless reminder about sharing and trust. ~ Teodoro Morca
