18:00 Pre-show

Sign up for your performance at the pre-show or be part of the audience and enjoy not only various performances but also delicious Arabic cuisine from Lounge Leyaly, an oriental bazaar, and maybe a coffee at the café. And hopefully, we’ll manage a few small surprises…

20:00 – 22:00 Afterparty at Lounge Leyaly with show

Come and enjoy some delicious food, a hookah, tea, and performances by several dancers. And if you are a dancer, you can sign up to perform and experience dancing in an Arabic restaurant setting.

Lounge Leyaly – Koliště 1907/3, Brno

9:00 – 10:30 Workshop with Sheyla

Baladi with melaya (or without) – Folklore is my passion, which probably doesn’t surprise you, and that’s why I’ve prepared a short choreography in the Egyptian baladi style for this occasion. If you have a melaya and want to use it, bring it along (I will have some available for borrowing), and we’ll use it at the beginning of the dance (it can be danced without a melaya as well).

11:00 – 12:30 Workshop with Yalia

Drum solo – A juicy drum solo that will feature flirtation, humor, and solid layering of elements in Yalia’s typical style.

13:00 – 14:30 Workshop with Badriyah

Lyrical modern oriental – Combine passion, femininity, and expression with oriental dance and let yourself be carried away by a new choreography from Badriyah, which mixes oriental dance with the principles of pop ladies styling to the cover version of the world-famous “Tamally Maak.”
