WORKSHOP 1 - Introduction to Silk Veil
Learn how to dance with one of the most beautiful extras in belly dancing, the silk veil. In this workshop we will come to grips with how to hold and control the veil, basic movements to compliment your dancing and a set of simple veil routines.
- A basic level of belly dancing is needed for this workshop but no previous experience with veil is necessary.
- You must provide your own silk veil. Veils are available from Hilary's Bazaar on the Royal Mile.
WORKSHOP 2- My favourite silk veil routines
Moving on from the basic introduction to silk veil, we will learn a selection of some of my favourite veil routines and experiment with creating your own! All of these will be put together to create a choreography. We will also explore dancing with veil to a variety of music and see how it can be used in a variety of styles.
- Either a basic level in dancing with veil is needed or completion of first workshop.
- Again, you need to provide your own silk veil.
A good silk veil is a sound investment for any belly dancer! You can find some pictures of the ones on sale here http://www.hilarysbazaar. com/silk2.html
