Bulerías
Tengo pena porque tengo
una camisa sin mangas
sin cuello y sin delantero
y rotita por la espalda
We have been working on alegrías in palmas class.
Below watch a beautiful example, which you’ve very likely seen, of the great Matilde Coral dancing to Rancapino and Chano Lobato in Carlos Saura’s classic film, Flamenco.

Looking for a simple marcaje to add to your bank of bulerías steps?
Here’s one you can use in a variety of ways.
Try it with me here:
Here’s another one David Lagos shared with us during his last workshop.
Bulerías por Soleá
A nadie quiero
mientras que viva mi compañero
According to David Lagos if you’re looking for an example of soleá de Triana, you’ve got to listen to El Arenero.
(You can watch a video of him below.)
But first, here’s one of the letras he sings:

Below I take you through a marking step in the compás of twelve.
Add it to one of your dance choreographies, or use it as an exercise to practice changing directions, spotting, holding a focused gaze, or body positioning.
Below watch a vintage video of El Lebrijano shared by David Lagos.
This is one of the letras you’ll hear:
Soleá de Alcalá
No quiero ir a Alcalá
porque me dan camarones…
Soleá de Triana
Traditional
Ay se murió
y mi pañuelo yo se lo eché a la cara
pa’ que no tragara tierra

Do you love a little slapping and clapping?
Here I share a flamenco dance tutorial for a bulerías remate with contratiempo.
A remate can be done using footwork or body movements or a combination of the two.
Watch and listen to David Lagos sing today’s letra during a sound check in the video below
Soleá
Ojalá contigo fuera
pero no caen los rayos
donde la tormenta suena
Bulerías
Aguilar de Jerez
Pa caballo el cartujano, pa torero Rafael
y pa cante y vino bueno
San Pedro bajó del cielo
y dió su llave a Jerez

Dance with me!
Learn this short tangos combination with abanico.
We begin with a simple marcaje in the first compás,
And finish with a remate in the second compás.
Bulerías de Cádiz
Cuando paso por Navarra
camino de Andalucía
se me mete en la garganta…

Ready to learn a simple remate por tangos??
Use this remate to add a little flair to a choreography you already have, or
Put on some of your favorite tangos and do it over and over again as an exercise, or
Create your own dance and make this one of your steps.

Here’s a flamenco step that combines marking with footwork.
Use it with any palo in the rhythm of 12.
Or use it as a technique exercise.
Ready to try it out?
I recommend approaching the step like this:
Soleá por Bulerías
Traditional
Será o no será
pa mi unos tormentos dobles
verte y no poderte hablar
Today enjoy a clip of Fernando Terremoto singing por tientos and tangos.
Here is one of the letras he sings:
De Madrid han venido
varios pintores…
