Tarik Sultan in Australia!

What a great opportunity! To be honest I havent heard much about this event and thinking that most of you haven't heard as well I decided to post here a little bit about what is happening in Queensland on 20 & 21 February 2010. Tarik Sultan is coming all the way from NYC to perform and teach for the first time in Australia. You can research and know about his wonderful work on his website http://www.tariksultan.com/. There are some very interesting articles about the history of bellydance, it is worthy to read each line!

  4. Tarik is a lovely guy. I met up with him in NYC and hanged out together at Summer Stage watching and dancing to Natacha Atlas. I also have experienced his teaching as I attended Morocco's summer intensive in NYC and Tarik is Morocco's protege and he takes the warm up section of class. As Morocco, Tarik is very thorough and takes the time to explain things clearly. He is a wealth of knowledge as Morocco has passed on her knowledge onto him. I also saw him in Egypt during Ahlan Wa Sahlan festival.

    He's certainly not a flash in the pan dancer, he is very correct in the way he interprets certain styles. So if you think he will be similar to say Tito then you are best to read about his work before you attend. If you want a thorough workshops with loads of info and background then this would be for you.
