This course will cover in-depth the basics of Middle Eastern dance including posture and poise, isolations, beginner movements and gestures, hipwork and shimmies. Students will learn how to create beautiful forms and make proper use of space. We will also cover popular Middle Eastern rhythms and music appreciation.

About the teacher:
Dancing since the age of three and belly dancing since 1989, Xylinia performs regularly in New England's top nightclubs and restaurants. She has been fortunate to be a student of both Sasha of New York and Amira Jamal of Boston and has performed with the troupes Solaris, The Jewels of Jamal, Snakedance Theater, The Flying Tresses and the comedy-duo: Queens of De-Nile! with Chantal.

A student and performer of traditional Raks Sharqi for 20 years, Xylinia has also studied and incorporated dances from all over the East into what is commonly referred to as American Cabaret. Fusing Arabic, Greek, Turkish, Rom, Indian, and Spanish movements into a rich tapestry of sights, sounds and emotions.

Advanced Repertory Class Series
Returning Fall 2011

The Repertory Class teaches the students the skills of performing. The dancers in this class will learn a dance work choreographed by the instructor Mary Lee Karlins on Tuesdays or by Ivan Korn on Saturdays. In the final class session, the students will give an informal performance of the work they have learned.

This class is open to any dancer with experience who is enrolled at the Marblehead Scholl of Ballet in two or more technique classes per week and attends these classes regularly.

In addition, the repertory students are expected to arrive early at the repertory class, to warm up and are also expected to review previously learned material prior to each class. There will be 10 repertory classes and one final rehearsal before the performance. The workshop performance will be in December, date and time to be announced. The time and location will be announced. Tuition for one repertory class is $180, $306 for both.

Let's Dance Together
The "Lets Dance Together" classes are designed to develop coordination, stimulate imagination, and prepare children for later dance or sports activities, through interactive dance experiences involving both parent and child. Music and rhythms are a part of each class. Parents will learn a series for enjoyable activities which they can later repeat at home with their children. This class is for mothers, fathers or carefivers and children ages 2½-3½.
