ALL styles of belly dance are welcome (Orientale, folkloric, fusion, etc.) Musicians are also welcome! Groups are encouraged. This is an informal dance event. Makeup and costume are not required. Maximum length: 6 minutes. Family friendly is preferred. Bring your music downloaded to a device (must play in Airplane mode-no streaming). There’s a large bathroom to change into costumes, but you’ll want to arrive in makeup.
DRUM JAM
The drum jam will follow the dancing. Bring your tabla/dumbek, riq/tambourine, frame drum, darbuka, zills/finger cymbals, or other rhythm device to participate in a circle of drumming and/or dancing. We’ll be playing these five rhythms, in no particular order: Baladi, Ayube, Masmoudi, Malfouf, and Karsilama.
There's no charge to attend, but we'll take donations.
