This site is an overview of the styles of dance I teach, their history and how various cultures use them and how we can use them for our own mind/body/spirit work.
The site also has interesting links to other dance and cultural sites. I teach many different related styles of dance including Middle-Eastern, Silk-Road, East European Gypsy, Flamenco and work with traditional props as well as imrovisation. I teach gently from simple movement and alignment principles, helping people to understand how their bodies work, so they can move safely, while encouraging them to let go, move and enjoy themselves.
Some workshop examples include;
Egyptian men's stick dance,
Iranian (Persian) folk and social dance,
Fan dance from China and Spain,
Dancing with fabric, from hankies, to scarves, to light and heavy veils,
Barefoot Flamenco,
Flamenco rhythm work,
Gypsy dance from Russia & Spain,
Dancing & playing with finger cymbals
