Nelida Tirado Flamenco

If you want t learn, perfect and enjoy flamenco Nelida's class is for you. A caring, motivating, passionate teacher who pulls out your feelings while instilling in you proper dance technique and understanding of this beautiful artform. I can't say enough about Nelida's classes

Neli is the BEST! As an artist and dancer, she is absolutely transcendent, and if you can see her perform live, you must! She is also equally gifted at teaching, and has been an incredibly nurturing maestra to me and so many other lucky students in NYC for years. If you want to learn flamenco, there's no better place to start because she provides such a solid foundation. If you have some experience elsewhere, I recommend you continue your flamenco journey with Neli--she gives feedback and makes corrections so that you can actually grow. On top of all this, she is just a wonderful person--warm, caring, funny, etc.--and so her classes are not only rigorous, but fun! I emphatically recommend her as both an artist and teacher!

If you have the opportunity to learn from Neli Tirado, then know that she is the greatest flamenco teacher here or anywhere. Neli is a true artist at the deepest level who is so generous with her time and knowledge.

Run do not walk to learn from her or to watch her perform. One of the best you will find anywhere!!

Nelida offers private flamenco instruction in choreography, technique for beginner to advanced levels. She is a skilled and passionate teacher with a unique talent for imparting flamenco structure and vocabulary. Neli doesn't only teach steps but makes students independent and engaged learners of this art form. I love how passionate she is about making flamenco accessible and inclusive to all. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Neli is a fabulous flamenco teacher. She is full of passion, joy... and a healthy dose of duende. Even through the computer screen she is able to guide and encourage in a way that makes you feel like you are in the studio with her. I love the little bits of history and cultural context she sprinkles in as we learn the choreographies. Can't wait to be able to take classes in person - but am grateful to compas together virtually. xoxox
