Her work operates from a decolonial indigenous body knowledge\, sexuality\, and North African feminism(s) framework.

To learn more about Esraa\, visit https://www.esraawarda.com/. \nLOCATION:\nAll workshops will be held at Brasil In Motion/Balance Studio at 418 N 35th St\, Seattle\, WA 98103.\nStreet parking.\nPlease note that this studio is in a historical house on the upstairs floor and entering the studio requires climbing a flight of stairs. \nSCHEDULE:\nSaturday 2/15: 2-4 pm Algerian Rai Dance and 4:30-6:30 pm Algerian Chaoui Dance\nSunday 2/16: 2-4 pm Algerian Assimi (Algeroise) Dance and 4:30-6:30 pm Key Concepts of Algerian Dance Lecture\nSee below for class descriptions. \nREGISTRATION:\n$150 Limited Early Bird Registration\, includes all 4 workshops – open to first 10 people to register!\n$175 Full Workshop Package\, includes all 4 workshops\n$50 Single Workshop \nTo register\, click here. \nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS: \nSaturday\, February 15 from 2-4 pm: Algerian Rai Dance\nRaï\, Algeria’s “rebel blues\,” is a defining musical genre and counterculture of North Africa originating in Western Algeria. It often explores themes of subversion\, exile\, love\, and loss\, reflecting the region’s social struggles. We will delve into body-rhythm connection to embody Algeriann Raï’s signature cathartic “groove”. \nSaturday\, February 15 from 4:30-6:30 pm: Algerian Chaoui Dance\nThis workshop will explore a traditional dance from one sub-group of the indigenous people (Amazigh) of North Africa\, known as the Chaouiya. This group is home to the region of the Aures mountains in East Algeria. Chaoui dance is maternal and grounded\, truly symbolic of this tribe’s respect for the divine energy of nature and agriculture. Famously known for the “bounce” of the belly\, this style is danced with strong isolations in the pelvis area. \nSunday\, February 16 from 2-4 pm: Algerian Assimi (Algeroise) Dance\nAssimi\, or “danse Algéroise\,” is an Andalusian-influenced classical dance from Algiers\, danced at the opening of wedding processions by family matriarchs to usher in the evening. This graceful dance embodies the dignity\, virtue\, and femininity of Algerian women. Students will learn to dance with intention\, charm\, and meditative coordination of “les mouchoirs” (handkerchiefs) in hand. \nSunday: February 16 from 4:30-6:30 pm: Lecture: Key Concepts of Algerian Dance\nEnhance your dance experience with an engaging lecture and conversation that explores the social\, historical\, and aesthetic aspects of the Algerian dances we have practiced over the weekend. This session provides students with an authentic\, critical introduction to key concepts essential for understanding and participating in Algerian dance culture(s) \n  \nStefanie Fatooh\, qabilaseattle@gmail.com \n

SUMMARY:Circle Mirror Transformation
DESCRIPTION:Circle Mirror Transformation is a case study of strangers willing to take a chance and open themselves to the revelations\, indignities\, hilarity\, and heartbreak of an amateur acting class in a community center classroom. In doing so\, they transform the space into the anti-Zoom room; it becomes a quietly poignant reminder of the power of being present with one another\, a reflection of the stories we share through the silliness and the silences\, an open invitation to partake in the transformative and sublime power of play. \nCircle Mirror Transformation premiered at Playwrights Horizons in October 2009. The play received Obie Awards for Best New American Play\, Performance\, Ensemble\, and Directing; and was nominated for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play and Outstanding Director of a Play. \n  \n*This play has an Arab character and Arab actors \n
