From a previous post:
Angelina (Dahlena's daughter) and Alexandria are sponsoring Mohammed Shahin weekend of June 21-22. On Saturday, he will teach a MASTER CLASS at Belle Plaine Studio. Prior to this, several out-of-state dancers who have specialties OTHER than Egyptian-style dance will be conducting TECHNIQUE CLINICS

Natasha of Portland is definately doing "Chiftitelli with Attitude" which will focus on turkish technique. I am doing American Greek Style Caberet. Shadiah from Detroit is doing khaleegy and finger cymbals.

The Sunday workshops will be held at another studio-Visceral Dance on Elston by Western and Diversey. Mohamed will be teaching Folkloric styles-Saidi with cane and another stunning Raqs Sharqi classic egyptian routine. Both workshops, as well as Saturday's Master Class, will be 2 hrs in length. All 3 clinics will be 90 minutes each and are priced separately from Mo's workshops. Of course you will all save if you pre-pay before June 1 and also if you " buy in bulk!'

The showcase concert will be at Al Hambra Palace on Sunday at 8pm....this is your chance to see quality dancers in a truly gorgeous, unparalleled setting! Following our showcase, Detroit star Tony Bahu will rock the stage-bring your dancing shoes cuz you have never heard such an innovative, irresistable, dancable fusion of western and middle-eastern music!!! Show Tickets are $20 prior to June 1, $25 after, menu is completely separate (but delicious)!

More details to follow soon.
