In this class you will learn movements centred around your hips, torso and subtly moving spine in order to create an expressive whole similar to the abstract patterns found in Arabic art. Your legs will carry you through space, varying from earthly steps to a more expansive flow and your arms will subtly punctuate the rhythm of the music.
