In this workshop, you will be led through a series of drills learning folkloric and tribal moves such as the hagallah, the j-step, bold hip work, the Jamilla Flamenco step, double back, and many more. We will then build the choreography in a series of combinations that may be used on their own or as part of this choreography. Variations will be given for large groups as well as performance options for duets. The music for this choreography is the classic Ismaaouni by the Upper Egypt Ensemble. Finger cymbals may be used.
