In this weekend-long intensive Shahrzad will be sharing her approach for putting together an exciting and dynamic Mejance (entrance song). She will work through each part of one of her signature songs, breaking down the unique musicality and technique for each section, and working the movements into challenging combinations. By the end of the weekend participants will be able to put together all of the combos into a full Mejance choreography that can be used for practice or performance. 

Participants should bring Veil and Assaya.
