You step off a narrow Granada street and into a cool studio where the wooden floor already hums from old rhythms. The city’s light filters through tall windows; outside, the Alhambra watches from the ridge while the bustle of plazas and tapas bars slips away. In that hour the room becomes a small theater of pulse and footfall.

Hydrate and plan a short break
One hour moves quickly; bring a small water bottle and rest briefly if you feel lightheaded during intense footwork.
