Stick dance

We are going to work with dance from the northern region of Egypt. The region/style is called ‘saidi’. It is a powerful dance with beautiful Burlesque elements woven into it; tough, playful, sensual. It is a style that you certainly cannot learn from just any belly dancing teacher. Get ready for something unique.

Workshop

Yes you would love to try this dance, but you’re just not sure whether to register for a full course or not? In that case: Request a workshop (15€). Together we will try to set up a new group. You can try one-and-a-half hour of dance packed with the best of the theme of a previous season, such as Fluidity, Rhythm essentials, or Stick dance. You can alsotake the first lesson of a course block as a trial lesson (15€), provided there is still a place available.

Year schedule

Course year 2024/2025 is structured along 4 themes. You can register for a theme (6 to 7 lessons). Stage animals among us can continue after the courses have ended by participating in the 2024/2025 showgroup. The lessons take place on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings in the brick building at playground Kozakkenpark (10 minutes by bike from the UT!).

Course fee

The workshop fee is 15€ (minimum of 10 participants). The course fee is 60€. After each course you can decide whether to continue or not. A course discount applies for students and people with a low-income.

Inclusivity

Accessibility for the male sex depends on the already registered participants. The Wednesday group has a core of participants who have been dancing since the foundation of Raqs Enschede in 2022.
