Do you want to know a little bit more about this typical Spanish dance?
Flamenco in its strictest sense, is a professionalized art-form based on the various folkloric music traditions of southern Spain in the autonomous communities of Andalucía, Extremadura and Murcia. In a wider sense, it refers to these musical traditions and more modern musical styles which have themselves been deeply influenced by and become blurred with the development of flamenco over the past two centuries. It includes Cante (singing), Toque (guitar playing), Baile (dance), Jaleo (vocalizations and chorus clapping), Palmas (handclapping) and Pitos (finger snapping).
