During this immersive course we will go through some rhythms and musicality, belly dance and tribal fusion technique and we will learn and fun and dynamic drum solo choreography. Hip movements, sharp isolations and shimmy will characterize this choreography, connecting us with the fire elements and with the power of the darbuka, traditional Arabic drum using for belly dancing.
