Eva Verbruggen

Eva Verbruggen was born in 1978 in Antwerp, Belgium.  At the age of 5, she began to take dance classes, later receiving classical ballet training over 10 years.

In 2002, she started at the Cristina Heeren Foundation in Seville, and after successfully finishing, having danced under such Flamenco greats as Manolo Soler, Milagros Menjíbar and Rafael Campallo, she entered the Flamenco Abierto dance school, where she continues to study with such noted dancers as Marta Arias and Rosario Toledo and to be inspired by her maestro, Andrés Marín.

Eva has gained experience by dancing in cultural festivals in her native country of Belgium and since 2011 she has appeared on many stages in Seville.

She has years of experience teaching flamenco dance and Sevillanas, regularly giving classes and intensive courses.

She is a dedicated teacher and enthusiast who knows how to positively motivate her students.  Her methodology is directed towards conscious learning and the development of a solid base in the art.
The most important part of her classes is to create a relaxed and trusting environment free from competitiveness, where the students feel safe and free to explore their own expressiveness.
