Master Class with Issam & Jill: Understanding How to Dance to Middle Eastern Rhythms

  • Evolution Studios 10816 Burbank Boulevard North Hollywood, CA, 91601 United States (map)

Middle Eastern melodies are known for drawing us out of our seats to dance. On Wednesday, November 20 at 6:30pm at Evolution Studios in NoHo, Issam will teach why the structure of these rhythms are important to Middle Eastern music and calls us to dance. Understanding Middle Eastern rhythms allows dancers to move from emotion and connect with the music. Practice short combinations created and taught by Jill that accentuates the music and gives dancers a feel for the rhythms. Ideal for both improvisational and choreographed dancing.
