Flamenco is a traditional style of Spanish folk music and dance originating in the region of Andalucía around 500 years ago. Since then Flamenco has spread all across Spain and even to previous Spanish colonies. While most people only associate flamenco with graceful dancers twirling in their gypsy dress, flamenco is a very flamboyant and passionate art form which includes singing (cante), guitar playing (toque), dancing (baile) and hand clapping (palmas). Flamenco has also been cited as one of the major influences of modern-day tap dancing.
