This is and advanced class for dancers to put the techniques
into practice. Discover different ways of how moves can be pulled apart and put together. Combinations and
choreographies will be worked on to bring the individuality of each dancer. We will visit the various styles of dancing
(Sahrqi, Baladi, Saiddii, and Shaabi). For this class; dancers must have a clear concept of Egyptian dancing and
have studied with Azza for several years. This is not a technique class, it's all about dancing, combinations and
improvisations. Dancers will be practice to create combinations on their own and as a group. This class is for
dancers who have been studying dancing for at least 3 years and/or have taken workshops and are familiar with
Azza's techniques. This class is limited in size to give dancers room to dance.
