After last years huge success Lucia Fatta will repeat her class of fusion between oriental and tango, opening new possibilities of interpretation to some musical passages with the typical adornos of Argentinean tango.
After a short lunch break at 13.30pm we introduce you to Lubna Emam, a teacher with such energy that you just have to get up dance!. She will teach sharqi today but don't miss her other classes including technique and a groovy khaligi.
Last but not least we have Aida Nour. Today she will teach haggala and in the next days sharqi and shaabi. Her graceful dancing makes Aida something out of the ordinary, don't miss it!
