Sa'diyya & Friends "Improvisation Innovation Nights" at Zafaron Grill!
Every Saturday night I am welcoming 1-2 dancers to share the stage with me at Zafaron Grill so they can practice their improvisational dance skills! Don't be scared! Give it a try! This is a no-stress environment to practice your skills! Improvisational dancing is at the heart of Belly Dance, and all Belly Dancers should have this ability. The only way to get it is to DO IT! I will perform my normal shows, and between my sets, the guest dancers will perform!
Here are a few guidelines:
-Guest dancers can perform up to 8 minutes each (can be multiple songs.)
-Your dance doesn't have to completely improvised - can be a "Swiss cheese" choreography.
-All levels are welcome, but dancers must have some performance experience.
-Also open to aspiring pros and semi-pros.
-Open to out-of-towners, too.
-This is open to everyone - not just my students!
-Music should be Middle Eastern.
-Dancers should wear professional costuming that is flattering and family appropriate.
-Any dance prop is welcome.
-Any Cabaret style is welcome (since it's a restaurant show with Middle Easterners as the clients, they will expect more Cabaret styling).
-Folkloric styles are welcome, too.
-Music should be brought on a CD and on an ipod or iphone as a back-up.
That's it! There are only 2 slots available per Saturday night, so reserve your spot soon. Fill out the form below to be a part of SA'DIYYA & FRIENDS "IMPROVISATION INNOVATION NIGHTS!"
Please bring guests with you to see your performance and enjoy dinner! This should be a win-win situation so the dancers get valuable experience in front of an audience and the restaurant receives some extra business! Be sure to tell your family/friends to make reservations by calling 972.248.3500 in advance!
Contact me on Facebook or by emailing me at [email protected] if you have questions.
