Elegant Arms & Hands
In this 4-week course, we will explore the various arm patterns and hand articulations we can use to dress up our dance. We will warm-up with exercises to enhance our flexibility and strength in the upper body, and use improvisation prompts to discover new ways to express our dance. There will be an emphasis on stylizations for modern raqs sharqi (belly dance). Open level.
