Come learn the basics of Turkish Oryantal style Bellydance in a 2 1/2 hour workshop designed to familiarize you with the particular moves and style that characterize Classical Turkish Bellydance. Learn the history of Turkish dance, how to distinguish the music, the basic rhythms and add onto your existing knowledge of Bellydance moves with the singular style that is Turkish. Bear in mind, this is not Gypsy, Rom or Folkloric Turkish, but rather a style that utilizes aspects of the previously mentioned styles combined with Arabic dance and even some Indian influences. There's gonna be a lot of hip twisting fun going on!
Jamie Lynn dances both Egyptian Style and Turkish Oryantal and loves both for their variety of energy and emotion. She is the Turkish dancer at Raks Helwa Bellydance Show at Ruta Maya. She has been studying Turkish style since she went to Turkey in 1999.
