Flamenco-Árabe Fan Veil
“Al Gantara” by Egiptanos

The fan has always been a beautiful prop for flamenco dancers, just as the veil for belly dancers. Sonia will introduce a seamless blend of these two feminine and powerful dance styles. In this workshop we will review various postures and stylized combinations with the extension of the Fan Veil. Bring comfortable dance shoes, and don’t forget your Fan Veils. *a single right handed fan- veil is required for the workshop.

Modern Drum Solo, Sonia Style
“Rock-N-Darbuka” by Artem Uzunov

Interpreting the rhythmic syllables of the darbuka with ease and precision is one the challenging components of the modern drum solo style. In this workshop, Sonia will offer an all new choreography, fine-tuning technique, and creating smooth transitions. Comfortable dance shoes are recommended.
