So sultry and feminineFeb 11, 2007
By Seir Campanilleros -Flamenco
This lady is an amazing, elegant dancer and a great instructor. Her calm and positive demeanor is drawing and the passion for her dance comes forth. I must admit when I began the program I was only curious.
The first segment teaches the very pure and feminine form of flamenco which a woman can dance alone, even barefooted.
Seven detailed combinations; beautiful choreography, almost sultry, with heavy concentration on hand rolls, arm movement and strict posture; the important elements in posture to allow for proper movement of torso and legs. Beautiful turns and tips on the "quebrada" similar to barrel turns. This program is full of substantial information that can be incorporated beautifully into the fusions of many dances, particularly helpful in my belly dance.
The second segment teaches the dance with the shawl or as referred by Peulla, " Manton de Manila." Proper hand positioning for manipulation of the "manton," or shawl which is a beautiful, long, fringed-silk embroidered square folded into a triangle. A woman wears this shawl over her shoulders and uses it as a dance prop. Nine beautiful combinations, that take you step by step into Puella's exciting journey into basic flamenco steps to emphasize the beauty of dancing with a shawl.
As for me, my curiosity paid off. I stand before a mirror practicing with my own "Manton de Manila!" Gratzie Puella!

Ole!Oct 24, 2007
By M. D. Vasquez I've been performing and teaching both classical Spanish and Flamenco dance for over 20 years and purchased this DVD as one can't have enough background or reference.
This is a good DVD for a beginning student and I can recommend it with confidence. But it's also great for the experienced dancer--Puela shares her knowledge beautifully and how can an experienced dancer not enjoy and appreciate how Puela shares generously what she knows and feels.
This is not the flamenco you see in Spain today, and Puela comments on this in her "welcome"; but it shows the base of what we do, and sometimes it's sad that women may forget these graceful elements that are the heart of flamenco as they lean toward the more masculine expression.
Good job, Puela!

Incredible...Dec 21, 2007
By Kyra_Athena
"Kyra_Athena"
I purchased this DVD with the intent to learn basic Flamenco as well as get a little exercise. I am also a Spanish teacher and I've always loved Flamenco, the dance of the Spanish gypsies.
Puela Lunaris is a wonderful teacher. She wears dark clothing and is contrasted by a pure white background. You can see her very clearly. She slowly explains everything you are doing, giving lots of details. She wasn't vague and demonstrated exactly what you were supposed to be doing, which I believe would lessen the chance of injury.
I felt that I was the only student and that I was personally getting a lesson from her. I was so impressed that I can't wait to buy the Sevillanas DVD.

Must Have Basic FlamencoJul 23, 2008
By Shara of Desert Dance I have always loved watching Flamenco! Now I'm learning it! I have been stomping, snapping and twirling around the house for two days now! I love that the background is white, completely, so that you can see all of her movement. She teaches a beautiful, passionate dance in a manner that will give you confidence to start dancing right away. Her mantons (shawls) are some of the most beautiful I have seen! If you have always wanted to Flamenco, get this DVD and get started!

hot!Jan 04, 2009
By N. Kramer Great instructions. execises she includes are very helpful. This is great for beginers(like me), but she actually takes you through two choreographies, so would be a good thing to have if you just want a new routine! FUN!!!
