Belly Dance tonite at 7pm!! Tonite’s class will be very, very special and appropriate for this time of year…we will be studying elements of the ‘Zaar’. The first time I had the rare opportunity to witness the Zaar was in Morocco and it left a profound impression upon me. What is, you ask? The Zaar is a possession-trance dance ritual practiced primarily by women throughout the eleven Middle East countries and East/Northeast Africa. The dance ritual is performed for the purpose of getting physical or psychological relief from distress believed to have been caused by Djinn, spirits that have inhabited the individual and must be appeased. Here is a short video about the Zaar- be sure to watch the dancer’s movements towards the end. Have some inner challenges to balance? Come to class! youtu.be/2KJFlDtT70c
