Re: Keti Sherif's A - Z advanced: Which are your favourites?

I like c (Cairo Cabaret), f (floklore-farida), p (pyramid), q (quarters) and all of the advanced ones (ululation, valley of the queens, wahda we noss, xtra shimmies, yemeni and zanzibar). I didn't care for h- too much turning. I liked j, but I thought the music was too fast to completely execute the jewel move (but hey, use it with slower music, right?). K was too much turning for me too. Oh, and I didn't care much for the Algerian wide-leg shimmy on Zanzibar. For some reason, I had trouble getting a (arabesque) down. I enjoy the video. I had some difficulty following along with the turns and spins, being as I don't have eyes in the back of my head. I would have liked it too, I think, if the practice part with music was done with Keti's back to the camera. But, I didn't study dance while growing up, so I think I am just a little bit slower at following with the instructor facing the class. But, hey, I can always skip back, skip back, skip back! :)
