Spanish culture comes to life at Paly with the snap of castanets and swirl of colorful polka-dotted dance skirts.

Paly Spanish language students can now show off new dance moves after Thursday's flamenco performance and instruction. Hassa Flamenco, a Spanish music and dance group, performed for two sixth period Spanish classes on March 2 in the Paly dance studio located off the girls' gym. Over 50 students attended the PTSA grant-funded music and dance performance, according to Spanish 3H teacher Pilar Alonso. Toward the end of the performance, students traded their role as audience members for that of dancers to learn basic flamenco moves.
