"Dancing to a song of Oum Kalthum, the “Star of the East”, the diva of Arab music, is almost sacred. It’s a chance to touch the heart of Egyptian culture, and to learn how to use its special musicality and interpretation of the lyrics. In this workshop we will work on romantic expression through oriental dance combinations and special gestures that embody the music as well as the intention and story of the song."
