Flamenco nights
✦ Flamenco Show ✦
מופע פלמנקו שירעיד את ההוסטל ויסחוף את כל העיר!
שיתוף פעולה ספרדי-ישראלי ברמה עולמית עם סוללת אומני הפלמנקו המובילים:
הרקדנית ירדן עמיר, הרקדנית יעל טוכפלד והגיטריסט El Fyty הגיעו לביקור קצר בארץ, הישר מסביליה שבספרד וכבר חברו יחד עם מיטב אמני הפלמנקו המובילים בישראל: הזמר יהודה שוקי שוויקי, והמתופף חגי לשם.
💃🕺
מופע פלמנקו סוחף, מרגש ואנרגטי המשלב קטעי מוסיקה מסורתית לצד מוזיקה חדשה ומקורית, עם ריקוד הפלמנקו הנשי והעוצמתי.
הפלמנקו היא שפה תנועתית, מוזיקלית וקצבית שצמחה מהעם, מהחיים התוססים ברחובות, במשפחות ובסמטאות אנדלוסיה שבדרום ספרד והיא לא משאירה אפשרות אחרת לצופים מלבד להיכנס ולהסתחרר משכרון האנרגיה שיתרחש על הבמה.
ירדן ויעל, כל אחת מהרקדניות תביא איתה את השפה התנועתית, הרגש, הנשמה והסגנון האישי המייחד אותה.
במופע לכל אמן ביטוי אישי, מקום לאלתור ושיתוף פעולה בין כלל מרכיבי אמנות הפלמנקו – השירה, הנגינה והריקוד שמתדלקים אחד את השני.
דרך שפת הפלמנקו והקודים הפנימיים שלה מתאפשר הקהל לצלול לעולם שמביע רגשות על כל גווניו ומכניסים את הקהל כולו למערבולת חושים תוססת ואל הקצב המסחרר.
🍷 ומה עוד? מנות טאפאס, יין וסנגריה בבר.

💃🕺 Flamenco Show
A flamenco show that will shake the hostel and sweep the whole city!
A world-class Spanish-Israeli collaboration with the leading flamenco performers:
The dancer Yarden Amir, the dancer Yael Tuchfeld and the Spanish guitarist El Fyty that arrived in Israel for a short visit, from Seville, Spain. They will team up with leading Israeli flamenco artists: Yehuda Shuki Shwiki and drummer Hagai Leshem.
Flamenco is a movement, musical and rhythmic language that has grown from the people, from the vibrant life in the streets, families and alleys of Andalucia in southern Spain, and leaves no other possibility for viewers expect to be amazed from the energy on stage.
During the show, each artist has a personal expression, a place for improvisation and cooperation between all the elements of flamenco art – singing, playing and dancing that fuel each other.
Through the language of flamenco and its internal codes, the audience is able to plunge into a world that expresses feelings of all kinds and puts the entire audience into a lively dizzying rhythm.
🍷 What else? Tapas, wine, and sangria in the bar.
Entrance is free | Thursday | 9.8.2018 | 21:00

Summer party at the studio of Mijal Natan
Most of flamenco studios at Israel start the year at September, near to the start of the Jewish year. Most of flamenco studios at Israel has end of year shows at June or July and go out for summer vacation. At the last few years I learn at the studio of Mijal Natan, a studio that became my flamenco home with time (with Suzanne Dellal, the place where I watch most of flamenco shows). The studio of Mijal works a little different than the other studios. At the studio of Mijal there are no summer vacations. The only vacations that the students have are those the students takes for their owns or nights that Compas Company (the flamenco group of Mijal Natan) has shows. At the past, before I started at this studio were some end of year shows, but Mijal decided it doesn't fit. She wants to teach instead of telling the students where do they have to stand on stage. There for since I started at this studio has been few "open classes", almost ordinary classes that the biggest difference that we could bring our families to see us. And one party for the studio students and families at the studio itself. Now we had a party with non official show at the studio. So, it went this way:
All of us could invite few people for a show that doesn't cost them money. At noon. All of the students needed to come early with something to eat or drink. I brought some chocolates (how typical) and some cups. We needed to help organize the chairs for the guests sit. I had four official guests: my sister and her daughter, my friend Maya and her husband. Ilan learn at the same studio even longer time that I am, but recently he can't come to the studio. He's a pro dancer and soon he will take a part at a production of the Israeli opera. And he still have a day job that recently he needs to be there for a longer time. He probably will be back after that opera production. He was a a gust of the studio, but it wasn't enough for me. I asked him to come even before. All came. Sadly my sister and her daughter couldn't stay till the end (my niece didn't feel well or something like that). Ilan came at the last moment. My friend Maya and her husband came when Mijal started to tell the guests what will gonna happen at the show and why do we do it this way. At fin la fiesta Maya and her husband needed to go. They stayed one more moment for photo.
I came even earlier than needed. I had on mind like coming for a class and be sure that I come relaxed on time, so it came out too early. I saw the end of a rehearsal of the company. At the start I was watching. After few more came - I changed to my flamenco dress and shoes. I went to help with the chairs. Although I take over than one class a week - I wasn't sure how much would I dance. I knew that I will have for sure a caña that we finished recently. We have some new stuff that we only started recently, improvisation over martinete and a new dance with castanets - a palo that I didn't know before and I still not sure that I call it correct. I still brought my castanets just in case. Mijal said that we are about to have the show by the list, but maybe will be some changes. What list????? I didn't have any! One of the girls sent me the list at WhatsApp, Ayelet gave me the list at her hand's write for I will take a photo of it with my phone. Mijal said that the caña that I knew that I'm about to have will be third instead of a colombiana. I took this list up to the second floor, my stuff were there. I was looking for a place with a good light for the photo. It was on another chair. At the moment that I finished it and anted to take back the things - came behind me a grown up woman who was angry that she can't get into the place with this chair. I said that she doesn't have to be angry. She found out who am I and started to call my name. Only then I understood who she is. I won't say her name, but she's a flamenco teacher from another city. Between her studio and Mijal's studio there is some collaboration. She's a Facebook friend, but it's something like first time that I see her live. Now Enough for me to figure out that I don't like her. She wanted a program. I said that we have a list, but it's for the dancers. She wanted to know when is the colombiana. It meant to be third, but it changed, don't know. I came down and told Mijal that the other teacher is there and want to know when is the colombiana. They talked. I started to be busy with my guests. One of the girls asked me to take videos of her dances that she have without me. She gave me her camera for it.
Our show has started a little late. At the end it worked out well for half of my guests. At the studio there are also shows of the company in a tablao style from time to time. We used the lights of those shows. I was running between the floors. So the colombiana stayed a third dance. Gurau from Compas Company was teaching it at the studio of the other teacher's studio. Thenwas the caña. One of the girls who meant to dance with us couldn't come. Moran from the company learned this dance but wasn't suppose to dance it at the show took the place of the other girl. And Moran is pregnant, almost at the end of it. The caña itself - there was a moment that I made a mistake but moved on like nothing happened. This dance including two circles in a row that I used to do in front of a mirror till this week. For me it's my favorite circle which is very easy for me. Last class of the caña was first time that I tried it without a mirror. I lost the focus and it became harder. I wasn't sure how would I do it on show. Luckily I was too afraid to mess it up and found the way to think like I do it in a front of a mirror. That moment went smooth. Maya and her husband sat on the second floor to watch. Maya took those photos with her fone at the caña:

Two more dances. I was busy to look for my stuff. The other teacher and her students moved it the floor and one even sat on it. It was difficult to take it. The camera of the other girl was there and my castanets. Because of the mess, the stress and dark - some things fell down. One of the girls who learn with me once a week helped me to find out all the thing. My time to come back to stage with the castanets. I noticed that my sister and her daughter were missing. I didn't have a time take care for it. It's only a start of dance. I was sure that I was the only one who has a problem to remember it. I've been told before the show it will be fine. we Were 4-5 girls (can't remember from stress). After a short while all of us stopped and looked one at another.... Ayelet was one of the girls. That was weird. She's a professional dancer and she have a great memory for those things, even for a dancer. Mijal stopped the music and said that it's luck it isn't a real show. We will start again. Not ALL the show, only this dance. We started again. We made it for few more steps. One of the girls made it look like we finished and started to go out proud. All of us went out after her. Oh no.....
I came up. I was putting my castanets at their bag. My phone was on silent. I was checking out if there is a message. My sister sent me a message that it was difficult for her daughter, my niece doesn't feel well so they went. OK, breath.... You have here some other people who came just for you.

My last part was improvisation over martinete. All the group was together on stage and each one of us made anything she wanted by rules and some steps we learned. Some new materials and lots of stress. I hardly remember a thing. I found myself just o something without being sure what did I do.
One of the girls from this group uploaded Facebook couple of phone photos from this moment:
One of the girls from this group uploaded Facebook couple of phone photos from this moment:
The show has finished a bit after that. I hoped to have a photo with Maya and Ilan together. I couldn't find Ilan, Maya was hurry, so I hgot a fast phone photo with Maya alone:
I changed to days clothes. I stayed a bit longer. I ate, drank and was talking with some people I know. I found Ilan. He was talking with someone who dance in another studio and I know a bit. The man from the other studio asked me if I still have this group at Facebook. Yeah, I still have. Oh, not the group. He meant to La Reina De LA Luna. Yeah, I still have it, no, it isn't a group at Facebook. I asked Ilan to have a photo with him. He asked to get in also the other man. Not sure which photos is better:
When I was about to go - I was talking with Ayelet and another girl from the studio. Ayelet also had the martinete, the other girl watched from the side. I told them it was difficult for me cause I wasn't sure. The girl that watched said that she was looking at me and I looked that I'm very sure in anything I did at the martinete. I didn't feel this way.... They both said at least I looked sure at myself. That's the most important thing
