El
baile flamenco is a highly-expressive
solo dance, known for its emotional
sweeping of the arms and rhythmic stomping
of the feet. While flamenco dancers
(bailaores and bailaoras) invest a considerable
amount of study and practice into their
art form, the dances are not choreographed,
but are improvised along the palo or
rhythm. In addition to the percussion
provided by the heels and balls of the
feet striking the floor, castanets are
sometimes held in the hands and clicked
together rapidly to the rhythm of the
music, or clicking using just fingers.
Sometimes, folding fans are used for
visual effect. |

Flamenco
is a Spanish musical genre with strong,
rhythmic undertones and is often accompanied
with a similarly impassioned style of
dance characterized by its powerful
yet graceful execution, as well as its
intricate hand and footwork.

Foreigners
often think that the essence of flamenco
is the dance. However, the heart of
flamenco is the song (cante). Although
to the uninitiated, flamenco seems totally
extemporaneous, these cantes (songs)
and bailes (dances) follow strict musical
and poetic rules. The verses (coplas)
of these songs often are beautiful and
concise poems, and the style of the
flamenco copla was often imitated by
Andalucian poets.
