Between the 1950s and 1970s, Classic American belly dance developed its own style and one of its legacies is the 5- and 7-part routine. In this workshop, we’ll sample the different sections: learn the music order, what to do in each section, how a band and dancer indicate a transition to the next section, the difference between an Egyptian and Turkish entrance, when and how to use a prop and safety is first in floorwork.

Although not a requirement, it would be helpful to bring zils (finger cymbals), rectangular veil, large skirt and knee pads/yoga mat.
