About
Difficulty: Intermediate/Advanced. Workload: Light. Suggested duration: 1 week. If you follow our suggested duration of one weeks, get ready to invest about 40 minutes in exploring the content, plus additional time to polish the choreography. But remember, you can always go through this intensive at your own pace. One weeks is just a suggested structure. Go beyond just simply repeating steps of someone else’s choreography. Understand the creation process and learn some tips for creating your own future choreographies. Iana and guest musician and historian Dr. George Sawa explore the art of belly dance choreography on the example of a dance piece to the song "Lamma Bada Yatathanna". The intensive consists of a mini-lecture on the history and meaning of "Lamma Bada Yatathana" song, teaching choreography with explanations of Iana’s choreographic choices, and demonstration of the choreography. You will need a veil for this intensive. This intensive consists of: 1. 10-min lecture on the structure of the "Lamma Bada Yatathanna" song. 2. 30-min breakdown of the choreography. All materials are gathered in one 40-min video.
