The team includes instructors Andrea Pérez, Tomy Herrero, Carlos Cayuela, Elsa Sánchez, Inés Pérez, Miguel Ángel (Emeá) Martín, María Adrián, Tania Trujillo, Vero Manzano, and Xulia Rocamora. Students consistently praise the teaching quality and the atmosphere: one student who completed a full year of beginner Lindy Hop classes said the instruction is excellent and the environment encourages engagement with the dance and community. Another finished their first trimester of Lindy Hop and found it both fun and therapeutic, with special mention of instructors Andrea and Tomás for their clear teaching and integration of dance history and musical tips.
Barrelhouse emphasizes a welcoming, attentive approach where students learn with confidence and security while respecting individual pace and style. The school celebrates the community that forms through dance and brings together people sharing the same passion. They run regular events including end-of-course celebrations such as Barrelage. Beyond regular classes, they offer private lessons, workshops, wedding choreography, private events, team-building sessions, and show bookings.
The school publishes educational content on swing culture and history, including a series by Grey Armstrong on Lindy Hop and its cultural context. They maintain an active presence on Instagram documenting classes, events, social dances, and moments both on and off the dance floor.
