Product Description
-------------------
Join Sarah Skinner, a top NYC performer and enthusiast of
Turkish-style belly dance in exploring two gorgeous dances
featuring the 9/8 rhythm, the beautiful exotic beat that adds so
much to the inimitable flavor and engaging spirit of Turkish
belly dancing.
Earthy and playful, sparkling with an energy of celebration and
surprise, Turkish belly dance absorbs the rich traditions of
Turkish folk and court dance as well as the mysteries and festive
rites of the lands along the Silk Road.
Reflecting the cosmopolitan spirit of Turkey, a melting pot of
cultures in the heart of the old world, Turkish bellydance is
ever-evolving, unburdened with do's and don't's, ever-welcoming
of beauty in movement. Join Sarah Skinner, a top NYC performer
and enthusiast of Turkish-style bellydance in exploring two
gorgeous dances featuring the 9/8 rhythm, the beautiful exotic
beat that adds so much to the inimitable flavor and engaging
spirit of Turkish bellydance.
The dances are set to two of the most popular Turkish party
songs -- "Rompi Rompi" and "Mastika" -- long-time favorites for
bellydance shows and social dancing. The versatile dance
vocabulary you'll learn in this program will add sparkle to your
dance - whether you dance professionally or enjoy belly dancing
at social occasions.
Dance Learning Options
Sarah guides you through every dance combination step-by-step.
DVD menu options let you choose how you want to learn! You can
focus on instruction only, or you can select instruction for each
combination followed by practice with the music, where you first
repeat the given combination twice, and then see how that fits in
the whole dance by doing the choreography from the top.
Bonus Features
Hey, let's admit it: Dancing is as much about the fun of
dressing up and adorning your body as it is about moving it! To
inspire you, Sarah also presents a mini-workshop on bellydance
fashion, costuming styles and options, as well as tips for
creating costumes and enjoying every facet of your life...in
dance!
Enjoy performances by Sarah Skinner - a ciftetelli, a veil dance
and a drum solo with Djinn NYC! Djinn NYC: Carmine Guida, Brad
