Al-Andalus Camp ‘Intensive’

Intensive week of Neoandalusi Dance by Nesma

Total Price: 1245 € All inclusive, full board accommodation in double room

Location: Casa El Morisco

Synopsis: Intensive dance course conceived with the concept of an immersion camp and cultural exchange in a unique place near Malaga in Andalusia, for dancers of Oriental Dance who They wish to deepen the neo-Andalusian style created by Nesma.
This version, which we call ‘Intensive’, introduced in 2018, is especially aimed at dancers who previously participated in the camp and who wish to return, or dancers who have previously acquired a general knowledge of Andalusian music and culture. The level of the course is equivalent in the two versions but the “intensive” version includes only dance workshops, mainly of technique and choreography. There are no impediments to registering for the “Intensive” camp, even if it is their first participation, although we recommend in this case the “Classic” version. You can also choose the full 2 Weeks Seminar.
