Dear Australian bellydance and drumming enthusiasts.... on the weekend of the 20-22 Feb, at AUSET we have one of the most powerful, authentic and intensive series of true Egyptian dance and drum workshops ever seen in Perth, WA!
DRUMMERS, Amr Abou Zeid, master Sufi percussionist and leader of Egypt's National Heritage troupe which plays to packed-out audiences every week at El Azhar in the heart of Cairo, is conducting daily workshops and playing at several dance classes. He and Sam will also be presenting several amazing "drum throw-downs" to dance to at the Sat night concert at Morley Rec.
DANCERS, if you've never studied with Egypt's master Reda troupe choreographer, Mohumed Kazafy - do it! Under life-long tutelage of the late Mahmoud Reda and currently, Farida Fahmy, he has developed the Reda styling, blending it with his own mastery of modern theatre dance. The last time he was in Australia was 10 years ago, he has since further developed and flourished as both teacher and artist with troupes around the globe. The Kazafy master-class package is excellent value. There are also many other teachers bringing you the best of beautiful Egyptian dance arts and also tribal fusion.
Guest Kayla from Belgium is sharing a Shamadan class Mon 23 Feb.
