Show held at- 310 E Hudson St Columbus, OH 43202
1 pm- Bodacious Belly Dance
Classic 1980s Nightclub Style
Layers upon layers. Hips subtly keeping the rhythm, Feet moving on the beat, upper body portraying the melody. All punctuated by interesting turns & a smiling face! Kamala lived this reality 6 nights a week at Arabic nightclubs with live music. This is a great style to integrate into your own repertoire. Learn it first hand!
The early ‘80s was a moment in time when Arabic nightclubs with live music proliferated around the world. The music was complex, the audiences sophisticated. The dancer was a 3rd of this partnership, expected to entertain with an educated understanding of the audience & the countries they gathered from. The dancer was also expected to understand when to pull back & allow the musicians to take center stage, & when to pull the attention to themselves. It was a magical moment in time, rarely caught on video. Kamala would like to keep the fire burning by teaching this style she still loves.
2:45- Elegant Energy for Bellydancers
