Flamenco!

Maybe it isn't a very passionaite dance as Argentine Tango but in my opinion it does make you relax and kick stress out of your life. Flamenco music combines traditional Spanish guitar music and singing and this, I believe that makes it special. You can't resist moving on the flamenco music especially when the rythm is Bulerias which mean that it is happy, cheerful dance. There are also other types of Flamenco dance such as Solea which is a slow rythm dance ( means solitude) and many more!
In Flamenco Choreographies, dancers are using some accessorise such as Mantones (Shawls), Castanuelas( castanets), some times they use a hat or a fan. They wear long skirts ( sometimes skirts and dresses have long tales )with special tops or long dresses ( up to the ankle) they use a very special type of shoes.
