WORKSHOPS

SZDT workshops provide a rich artistic and cultural experience for participants.  All workshops are designed to introduce an integrated arts experience through investigating middle east and central asian poetry, music, calligraphy and dance.  Additionally, all workshops present a fresh perspective regarding the east’s history and contribution to human civilization; creating an angle of tolerance for countries that have more recently been misrepresented.  

All workshops include:
  • Development of a better understanding of foundation and disciplines that creates a successful dance
  • Experience for any dancing body
  • The sensitization of grace and creative body language
  • Exposure of story telling based on the formation of the dance or the meaning behind a gesture
  • Increase energy level, strengthen muscles and bones, and burn calories

“Dance of Mugham” is the main style/form of dance that is investigated during the workshops, and is the product of over twelve years of research and reconstruction completed by researcher, educator and artist: Sashar Zarif.  The dance style investigates the relationships between the poetry, music, calligraphy and dance and has developed a base syntax, vocabulary and structure out of which to work.  As the dance form continually evolves, it works towards the goal of breaking down barriers through greater cross-cultural understanding, and investigates stories of migration and the quest for identity.

Program A - 2 week period, 5 days per week, 2.5 hours each day, 25 hours
Program B - 1 day period, 2 sessions of 2 hours, 4 hours
