The mother godess- Bal Anat dance?

topic posted Tue, December 19, 2006 - 7:48 AM by  Arya
On the Sheherezade DVD there is a dance (I believe the third dance on the DVD) that I find particularly inspiring... the one with the costume with shells, the mask and grlls with snakes in the back (do I recognize Tiffany there??!).... it's about the mother godess right?
As I loved it so much I am wondering if anyone has more info on that subject or a good book to read about it?

And... offcourse: Wow: who is that incredible dancer!!
Very very well done!
I love it!

    Well, the dancer in the video is Sabriye. And yes, she is an amazing dancer.

    About the dance- I know that it is based off of a poem that Jamila wrote- she'd have to answer to give the details. But she let us read the poem one day after class.
