Anthea Kawakib's Instructional Booklets - for students and teachers
|
For all styles of bellydance,
particularly Raks Sharki:
|
For Tribal Odyssey Belly Dance teachers and students: |
 My insights from years of study and exploration of the dance are distilled into an instructional manual for Oriental Dancers! It's designed to help all dancers from beginner through professional levels. Concisely written and easy to understand, with diagrams and illustrations; over 40 pages. |
Is
Middle Eastern music (or any
music) hard to understand? - Learn how I listen to music and what I do before I choreograph a dance. You'll hear what's happening in the music and be able to improvise OR choreograph with ease! Do you know how to identify a rhythm? - I'll show you the four steps I follow. Do you know what makes a dance interesting? - If this one element is missing, you'll bore your audience! My approach
to dancing is that of an artist, and I love to share
this art form with others. Over my years of teaching,
I've given much thought to how to present concepts and
insights to my students, in a way they can easily
understand, so they can begin to see - and think about -
the dance from an artist's perspective. This book is for the thinking dancer who wants to take choreography or freestyle dancing to new levels. |

So now I am recommending your book to all my students! You word everything so well and speak so eloquently. Especially in the end about reflecting reality in in your dance." |
