Greetings from California!
 
We just had the final weekend of ANAR DANA San Francisco Bay Area rehearsals in preparation for the big recitals this coming weekend in San Jose.  Please come an support the women and enjoy the fruits of the hard work they have invested this last year.  We have the following dances in the program: Andalusian Malouf from Tunisia, Palestinian Dabke, "Dasul Fetalor de la Crihalma" from Romania, Eskişehir spoon dances from Turkey, Dances from Şavşat in Turkey and Gilaki rice harvest dance from Iran. In addition I will be performing Persian, Dagestani, Sahraoui and Greek Rembetik dances.  You can get your tickets here.
 
I'm very excited that we have a special guest IAN NAGOSKI for the first Cultural eveing of the 2019/20 ANAR DANA Seattle season on Friday November 8th. Part of our repertoire this season are dances from the Armenian diaspora, specifically Fresno of the 1950's. This special presentation will put our dances in the bigger context of immigrant music from the Ottoman Empire in the US.  More info here.
It is also not too late to join this new season of ANAR DANA Seattle.  Dances for this season are Andalusian Malouf from Tunisia, Bosnian songs and dancs from Jajce, Armenian Diaspora dances from Fresno in the 1950's, Azeri Yalli from Nakhshivan, Bandari dances from Iran and a Henna celebration from the Balochi people living in the Sindh in Pakistan.  Visit the ANAR DANA Seattle FB page here.
 
When I return to Buenos Aires in December I will be continuing to teach the weekely Monday Tango classes  at Estudio Vinaya with the fabulous Marcelo Taglioferro.  See the performance we did at Cachirulo at Salon Canning in August HERE.  (Marcelo is continuing the classes while I am out of the country.)
If you are coming to Argentina and need help, I would love to share my experience of the tango world with you here.  I am always happy to offer my services to make your visit to the tango Mecca of the world more enjoyable. 
 
The next Dance and Cultural Tour to Uzbekistan  
is planned for March 18-29, 2020.  We will visit Tashkent, Bokhara, Samarkand and the Surxondaryo region.  Celebrate Noruz, learn and perform traditional dance and music, eat amazing food and revel in the artistic magnificence of the country!
Please save the date!
