SCA- Known World Dance Symposium 2009

topic posted Thu, October 2, 2008 - 8:54 PM by  Safiya
For all our SCA friends out there, I'm happy to announce that the Known World Dance Symposium, a fabulous event that takes place every other year in places all over the "Known World" (it's been in various US locations, as well as the Australian continent!), will be held in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada (Kingdom of Ealdormere) from July 2nd-5th, 2009. This event focuses on dance, and to a lesser extent music, from the Middle Ages, and is packed with fabulous classes on actual dances, theory, history, along with opportunities to dance all night long, and generally geek out with people who are passionate about dancing!
There will be a focus on both European and Middle Eastern styles of dance, with classes during the days and haflas at night. We are currently in the process of looking for teachers for dance and music tracks. If you're interested in teaching Middle Eastern dance, performing, helping out, playing music, teaching music or coming out and learning and partying with us, please contact me here on tribe or Lord Darius (info below) for more information! We'd love to see you in Ealdormere next July!

Please see the flyer below for more information & feel free to contact me with any questions or to get involved!
-Safiya
coordinator of the Middle Eastern Program
