Gypsy Dancing

from the villages of Upper Egypt

The Ghawazee, ‘invaders of the heart’) are the popular gypsy entertainers whose forbears settled in Luxor and the surrounding villages from the late 18th Century.  The wonderful traditional music to which they dance is unique to that area and is the impulse for this exuberant earthy form of Raqs Sharqi.

Compulsive rhythms, yearning melodies, shakes, shivers and swerves – a beautiful art!

Starting 11th September

Wednesdays 1.45 – 3.15pm

Includes fitness, stretching and work on posture.  Everyone is welcome.
