Workshops
Workshops are available with the guest artists, including drum classes, a riqq class, and a Rhythm and Movement class for Dancers with Souhail Kaspar. Rachid will teach Arabic instrumental and voice ensemble. Khadijah is teaching a class on khaligi style, and Naia will do a class on combining tradition hula with bellydance! We hope you can make it to these amazing classes. These artists rarely (if ever) make it to Arizona, and they're expertise is unsurpassed.
