Dance Flamenco with Passion

Confidence 

Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced dancer!

Has Flamenco grabbed your SOUL?


* I hear the strum of the flamenco guitar and the singer's "quejío" (ay, ay, aaaayyyy) and MY HEART STIRS


* I've always DREAMED of dancing flamenco but WONDER IF IT'S TOO LATE TO LEARN.


* I've BEEN AWAY from flamenco for many years and I'm finally READY TO DEDICATE MYSELF to dancing again but DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START.


* I've been taking flamenco dance lessons for years and have learned many choreographies but STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND how it works and I feel like I'VE WASTED MY TIME!


* I still can't COORDINATE MY BODY and get LOST IN THE COMPAS (RHYTHM).


* I love dancing flamenco so much and feel GREAT while dancing, but I'm shocked to see that I LOOK BLAND ON VIDEO.

Yes? Then IMAGINE yourself dancing flamenco like this...

  • Expressing your true self with Passion and Confidence no matter your age, current level of experience or size.
  • To be able to not only DANCE Flamenco, but to also SPEAK & FEEL Flamenco- and not *just* repeating rote choreographies.
  • Having the Compás IN your bones so you can dance "a gusto" (comfortably)
  • Focus on KISS-ing flamenco (keep it strong & simple) so that your movements are strong, intentional and "Muy Flamenco" 
  • Let go of the flamenco drama and be a part of a Supportive and Thriving Environment?

Whether you're just starting out or you've been dancing for years, 

you, too, can learn to dance flamenco online with Passion, Confidence & Understanding

Our Dancers ❤️ the Online Flamenco Studio

Why YOU will love the Online Flamenco Studio too!


THOUSANDS of dancers from ALL OVER THE WORLD have danced with me online since I started back in 2015!!


They're just like YOU! They started out with NO flamenco experience OR have spent years taking classes and STILL don't understand how to dance.


NOW, they're practicing regularly, learning choreographies, dancing with expression, feeling ALIVE, being a part of a supportive community, beginning to understand the nuances of compás, structure and the various palos. The list goes on and on!


How? Why?


Because, making the complicated world of flamenco easy to understand and digest is my super power! 


Yes, you can learn technique and choreography from your local teachers and from my online studio. But with the Online Flamenco Studio you also learn the LANGUAGE of flamenco, something that, frankly, many teachers don't teach or don't even know! And even more so, no one EVER helps you how to feel flamenco, how to develop that confidence, how to cultivate that courage to stand up and be seen.


The Rina Orellana Flamenco Method to Flamenco starts off with the heartbeat of flamenco, the COMPAS. 


This is the rhythm, the beat. The compás is EVERYTHING in flamenco. Without it, there is no dancing, just flailing! We internalize the compás with every moment so that we can trust our own abilities to express ourselves.


After the compás comes the main framework of the method: SPEAK, FEEL, DANCE FLAMENCO

SPEAK FLAMENCO

No, this isn't about speaking Spanish! It's about grasping the STRUCTURE of flamenco and its various PALOS (rhythms). It's the difference between merely performing a dance routine by memory and truly DANCING with an understanding of each part and the reasons WHY these elements matter.

FEEL FLAMENCO

This is what really brings the dance to life. It's the difference between a dancer who’s technically flawless but lacks emotion and one who might be less perfect but completely captivates. It's about expressing that 'aire'—that special charisma, cultivating that confidence,  fostering the courage to stand up and be seen. 

DANCE FLAMENCO

It's more than *just* technique. The goal is having that flamenco "look." That confidence and strength in the movement. The mobility and presence in the upper body. It's the difference between someone dancing some flamenco moves and someone who IS a flamenca!  We do this by KISSing flamenco—Keep It Strong & Simple as we focus on key accents and build an intentional practice.


And this is for ALL dancers, no matter where you are in your Flamenco & Life Journey! Newbies, experienced, young, mature, tall, short, thin, curvy.

Where are you in your Flamenco Journey?


Let's dance through it together.


Meet your maestra--

Hola, I'm Rina Orellana!


Trained in Madrid and based in Los Angeles, California, I've been dancing flamenco for over 25 years. I've also been training dancers for 20 years- from new beginners through advanced, ready to dance in tablaos.


After all these years of teaching, I've really learned what budding and seasoned dancers struggle with. And I say NO more imitating a bunch of steps from a choreography with no knowledge of what you're actually dancing! 


I believe that dancing flamenco is a personal journey and we all have something unique to offer. I am passionate about helping dancers reveal their inner flamenca by bravely stepping up to be seen. 


My goal is clarify the secret language of the art form so that you can truly dance it with confidence and self expression. 


Since 2015, thousands of dancers from all over the world have unleashed their flamenca with me in the Online Flamenco Studio. I hope you will join us.
