This workshop will teach dancers to interpret specific drum rhythms and accents with their bodies, communicate with the drummer, and create a dynamic performance through structured improvisation. The goal is to develop a dancer's ability to illustrate the music, control energy, and connect with the audience and the drummer.

 The typical rhythms and movements associated with a belly dance drum solo.

 The class focuses on how to embody musical embellishments and rhythms in your dance.

Structured Improvisation:
 You'll learn how to use structure to guide your improvisation, developing skills for the beginning, middle, and end of a drum solo.

Energy Control:
 The class will teach you to manage the ebb and flow of your energy and to balance grace with fire and subtlety in your movement.
