Bellydancers, musicians and drummers, check out the first ever Jalsah community event to be held in Pittsburgh.
On September 16, 6 PM at the Union Project, we will have a 30 minute darabuka (doumbek) class taught by Nick Rahgeb and immediately afterward, a 30 minute introductory bellydance class taught by Mavi.
At 7:30, my band, Ishtar, takes the stage to provide live Middle Eastern music for open floor dancing. PhatManDee will accompany Nick, Jeff and me on some Turkish, Hebrew and Ladino songs. Nick and Phil will perform rhythm duets. The open stage for musicians and drummers begins at 9:30.
Open floor dancing all night! Bring a hipscarf, bring an instrument, bring a drum. Bring a snack to share!
Bring some money. Earth Movement Studios will be vending bellydance gear and Prem will be selling hookah supplies.
In addition, bring old bellydance stuff, CDs, DVDs etc, that you wish to sell. There will be a swap table to sell bellydance stuff that needs a new home.
Entrance fee $5 (to defray the cost of renting the space).
