Saidi Masterclass with Leilah 💃🔥

This is one you do NOT want to miss. Saidi is one of the oldest and most beautiful folk dances in the world, rooted in ancient Upper Egypt, with a history stretching all the way back to the Pharaohs. It's powerful, joyful, grounded and utterly captivating, the iconic stick dance of Egypt, and honestly, if you love belly dance, this is a style you HAVE to experience.

And this is your chance to learn it properly, from the very beginning, in one gorgeous afternoon.

📍 The Place, Studio 1, 16 Flaxman Terrace, London, WC1H 9AT (King's Cross)
🗓️ 15th October, 12:15pm to 3pm
🎟️ £35 per person

Here's how it works. We begin with the story of Saidi, where it comes from, its ancient history and the beautiful music behind it, so bring a notebook and get ready to fall in love with the dance before you even move. Then we pick up the cane and start from scratch, how to hold it, how to swing and twirl it, and all the signature Saidi moves. By the end, you'll have learnt a full Saidi choreography to call your own!!

🪄 Need a stick? You can purchase a beautiful Saidi cane for £16, which I'll have ready for you at the class.

Spaces are limited, so grab yours while you can. No experience needed, just bring your energy and your notebook, and let's dance!! 🩷
