The Awalem were the highly respected dancers of the Arabic world and, as the name implies, were well versed in dance as well as in music, singing, poetry, story-telling, history, politics and religion. <br>It is Assale Ibrahim's intention to promote and revitalize this tradition in today's spirit. <br>Are you an oriental dance student (intermediate/advanced) or teacher? <br>Do you want to learn more background knowledge, technique and/or teaching methods? Then the Awalem dance education is for you! <br>A solid and grounded basis in dance is essential for every dancer, whether teaching or performing. Hobby dancers can also benefit from this training programme, feeling more confident and finding it even more enjoyable to dance. <br><br>The dance styles Assale will be covering in this 7 weekend course will consist of: <br>Sha'abi <br>Baladi <br>Classic Raqs and Modern Sharqi <br>Nubian <br>Oriental Pop <br>Tribal <br>Improvisation techniques <br><br>between 11am and 4pm <br>The programme will be taught with the following structure: <br>" Bodywork <br>" Background knowledge <br>" Practical application <br>" Rhythm <br>" Costume <br><br>As well as the different dance styles, the history of the music, along with the social, political and religious background of the dances will be analyzed and we will examine the most influential names in dance, musicians and singers of the Orient. <br><A href="Docs/AwalemDates.pdf" target=_blank>Dates</a> <br><A href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Awalem-Training-Ireland-with-Assale-Ibrahim/120520121400284" target=_blank>http://www.facebook.com/pages/Awalem-Training-Ireland-with-Assale-Ibrahim/120520121400284</A> <br><br>Assale Ibrahim brings to Ireland refreshing passion, charisma and substance to the cultural dance techniques she teaches. For enthusiastic Middle Eastern, Tribal and Oriental dance students and teachers, this is not a programme to be missed if you are looking for a more authentically enriching experience in your study or instruction technique. Due to years of research, many years of teaching and Stage experience she develops her own clear concept which enables different levels to easily achieve the essence and the lead of every possible movement. <br>Please join us on our inspirational journey - Assale brings life, colour, charisma and inspiring cultural expression in her dance to share with us all in Ireland and this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to learn from this kind of enriching instruction. It is not to be missed! <br><br>FULL COURSE FEE for 14 days of instruction over 7 weekends (Saturday and Sunday) will be a total of ¬ 700. <br>It works out to each weekend costing ¬ 100, (¬ 50 per day of instruction. Since its usually ¬ 60 for a full day of workshops, we will be saving ¬ 20 per weekend, a total of ¬ 140 altogether which is great value.) <br>In order to secure the workshop space, flights and hotel as soon as possible, Assale is asking that an initial deposit of ¬ 200 be put down by May 31st, 2012. We understand that for most of us we will need some time to pay for the rest of the fee, so the remaining ¬ 500 will be due by August 25th, before the course starts September 8th and 9th. <br>Please spread the word to those in your circle that would be interested. Minimum required Oriental/Middle Eastern dance experience should be at least 2 years or at intermediate level. <br>Any deposits that are paid in full, up front by May 31st receive a ¬ 10 discount! So the total will only be ¬ 630 <br>If you have any questions please contact Terri at theredembers@gmail.com or 0877530304</font></strong> </td> </tr> </table> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p align="center">&nbsp;</p> <p align="center"><font color="#009933" face="Papyrus"><strong>Would you like to be part of our event notification mailling list? <a href="Register.asp">Register with us.</strong></font></p> <p align="center">&nbsp;</p> <p align="center">&nbsp;</p></TD> <tr> <td colspan="2"> <div align="right"></div> <table width="32%" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Index.htm">Home</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Events.htm">Events</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Classes_Dublin.htm">Classes</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Restaurants.htm">Restaurants</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Performers.htm">Performers</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="History.htm">Background</A></font></div></td> <td><div align="center"><font color="#ffffff" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Souk.htm">Souk</A></font></div></td> <td><font color="#000000" size="1" face="Tahoma, Verdana"><A href="Forum.asp">Forum</A></font></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr></TBODY></TABLE> </body> </html>
