Nadia Powerful Posture & Poses  March 27, 2010

Nadia teaches in Suffolk, VA and has been dancing professionally for six years.  She has quickly developed a reputation for her precise technique and her elegance.  Combining fluid movements with sharp accents, she forms a unique and beautiful interpretation of the music. For this workshop, Nadia will show how to use your whole body to emphasize sharp accents in the music, adding excitement and dynamics to your dance.  Learn to convey confidence and connect with the audience through your posture.  Enhance your dance by using poses to look more dramatic.  This concept will be used in a drum solo choreography designed to add flair to any performance. www.nadiaraks.weebly.com

BriannaVeil Entrances in Classical Egyptian Dance May 22, 2010

An award-winning soloist, choreographer and troupe director, Brianna is a featured instructor and performer across the U.S.  She has been featured in bellydance DVDs and has her own instructional DVD, Ballet for Belly Dancers.  For this workshop, we will focus on discovering the beauty and impact of a veil entrance in a classical oriental performance.  Brianna will explain how to identify the entrance in a piece of classical music and discuss why veils have become a common prop in creating an exciting introduction.  Students will learn foundational technique used in entrances, with an emphasis on traveling and turning, and how to incorporate traditional as well as innovative veil movements into an entrance.  Then we’ll put it all together with Brianna’s original choreography.  Students will need a 3-yard veil.  www.briannabellydance.com
