How to Flamenco Dance with a Big Shawl

Video Transcript

"Hi! Thank you for visiting expertvillage.com my name is Yvette Parrish. This is the large manton, it’s just beautiful, it’s fantastic, I’m going to turn around so you can see a little bit of the embroidery back there. It’s a beautiful piece, it is a larger manton so I would recommend that you practice a little bit with your smaller one or if you have very long arms this would also be nicer. You can just open your arm up and you can spin the manton this way. I’ll turn to the side and that’s very pretty, turn in a circle with it and the same thing with the other side and I’m just waving my arm a little bit, the manton does all the work, it’s very beautiful. I’m going to do the same thing with this manton as I did the smaller one I’m going to flip it over my head. See it’s quiet large you have to get a little air there and I’m going to do the same exact move but you notice the length of it. So a longer armed dancer would love this size manton. I’m going to move it over my head and I’m going to slightly turn in a circle while I’m doing it and then you can let go and catch it and put it on. "
