67 artists and professionals of the sector, like Esperanza Fernández, Manuel Pedraz, Andrés Marín or the Dr. José Luis Castilla, encourage the flamenco learning for all the levels and from a wide perspective with a series of courses, gatherings and workshops. Individuals of the city of Sevilla take the initiative and organize them with the support of the XVI Bienal.
Apart from its Official Program and the Parallel Activities, this year the XVI Bienal de Flamenco counts on a space in Off Bienal so that people can show their offers with the support of the festival, following the model of the large festivals in Europe and turning itself into a perfect indicator of good quality of the stage.
Off Bienal turns each corner of Sevilla into a space of disclosure of the flamenco. In 2010, they will organize 86 specific courses in total ( they do not include those courses which continue during the whole season of the festival ). There will also be workshops, lectures, meetings, round tables, conferences and gatherings to complete the more than 100 learning activities suggested during Off Bienal 2010. They are not only for the baile, but for the guitar, the cante and the rhythm and compás.
