Review content:
i started taking beginner's classes at solo flamenco in october, 2008. i wasn't very good. but i was also really excited about finally finding an outlet for a long time interest and really didn't want to let myself quit, either. the people at solo flamenco made it easy to stick it out. mitsue's classes are rigorous and challenging, but she and her other students have also fostered a warm and welcoming community that really makes you want to try as hard as possible to get over that next hurdle. so, i guess i agree with glennross' comment about a non-diva atmosphere, but i'd add that it hasn't stopped solo flamenco from attracting the hottest (and coolest) flamencas and flamencos in portland.
what's more, mitsue's connections within the greater flamenco community (including across both the atlantic AND the pacific) mean that students are exposed to a wide range of world class talent, whether that be in the form of musical accompaniment during class or workshops taught by visiting instructors. students also get regular information on flamenco events around the city and region which let us get together under less sober (meaning more wine) circumstances than the classroom.
i'm now taking three classes a week and get excited for every one of them.
oh, and i'll include this because it was big for me: if you speak japanese and are looking for more opportunities to use it, there's a japan-flamenco connection that i haven't quite figured out yet and solo flamenco is its portland nexus.
Pros: world class instructors, supportive community
Cons: can't let myself into the studio to practice whenever i want
