 SATURDAY 9th APRIL

 Workshop 1: Russian Gypsy
Of all Gypsy styles, Russian gypsy is probably the most well-known of all. The world literature got inspired by the large whirling skirts and the quick violins. It is also the style which leaves the biggest space for personality and interpretation. We will explore all these aspects of gypsy dance, and more, in this workshop. Please bring a full skirt and be prepared to spin!

 Time: 12-2.00pm???
Price: £20
Venue: Islington Arts Factory

Â
 SATURDAY 9thApril

Workshop 2: Asian Fusion: From the Far East to the Middle East
After learning typical postures and movements from Japanese and Chinese dances, we will mix these with belly dance moves to form useable combos.

 Time: 3:30-5:30pm

Price: £22
Venue: Islington Arts Factory
 

SUNDAY 10th APRIL

 Workshop 3: Creativity in Dance
Dance is Art. Much more than pure technique and spectacular mastery of one’s body, dance is an act of expression and non-verbal communication. In this workshop, we will try to develop our creative side, using various exercises from many different dance forms. Regardless of your genre, this master class is not to be missed!

 Time: 12-4.00pm
Price: £40
Venue: Istd2 (Old Street)

Learn from many different teachers as everyone has something special to give. That’s my tip.

Worshops are the best way to learn and improve in bellydance.
