BALTIMORE WORKSHOPS

I will be in my hometown of Baltimore September 28-October 1. I'll be teaching two workshops and performing at The Rhythm Festival Friday night. If you are interested in a private lesson, please contact me.

I can't wait to see everyone!

UNDERSTANDING AND WORKING WITH MUSIC FOR THE TRIBAL STYLE BELLYDANCER

September 30, 1-3 pm
(Registration starts at 1pm - Workshop starts at 1:15)
Aura Movement Studio, 1715 Aliceanna Street

$20, $25 at the door. Click here to register.

Dancing can reveal all the mystery that music conceals. ~Charles Baudelaire


In this workshop we will explore the basics of music theory and how use that knowledge to become a more expressive tribal style dancer. Students will learn how to add emotion and drama to tribal style by working with and understanding different types of music and Middle Eastern rhythms. We will work with a live drummer and students will learn how to communicate with a drummer in both solo and group improv situations.
Take your dancing to the next level - great for all levels of dancers!


IT'S GOOD TO BE ODD
BELLY DANCE AND ODD RHYTHYMS

September 29 at the BALTIMORE INTERNATIONAL RHYTHM FESTIVAL

I don't have the time of the workshop yet, keep checking the festival page for details.

Learn how to count, recognize and dance to some of the belly dance's more interesting odd rhythms. Go beyond the Karsilama and break out of the even-meter box that often cages the spirit of tribal bellydance. Bring zills or turkish spoons and bring a notepad!

I'll be performing in the Friday night show. Click here for tickets. But don't just come Friday, Raquy and the Cavemen will be performing Saturday night. They are good friends and amazing performers!
