Here is what I'm teaching in my Powerhouse Gym classes.
June: Guedra
This is the trance dance of the Blue People of the Sahara. I'll give brief cultural information and teach the cool movements (mostly hands and arms) that make this dance so unique and interesting. It is like nothing you've learned in an Oriental class! I learned and performed this long ago with Josetta who learned it while in Morocco (the country) with Morocco (the dancer). And I've done additional research since.
July: Lebanese choreography to "Oumi Oumi Hizzi"
Many of you have seen this performed last summer. I've embellished it and added zils!
Classes at Powerhouse are Mondays and Wednesdays, 9:30-10:30 AM. We spend some of each class on Oriental technique and strengthening exercises as well on the topic of the month. Classes are $10 or free with gym membership. Actually, $10 buys a day's membership, so you can do weights or tan after class! Childcare is available for a small fee. Drop-ins and all skill levels are welcome.
