The Jung Center of Houston presents An Evening of Middle Eastern Dance.  Sponsored with Brigid's Place, this enjoyable evening of dance welcomes people of all ages.

Learn some of the fascinating history and movements of Middle Eastern dance. Based in women's ritual and communal dances, the steps arise from the natural shape of the female body. The dance itself is a reflection of femininity and its unique expression in each individual dancer. The evening will begin with an introduction to the dance form, followed by instruction on some of the basic movements—and practice.

This mini workshop provides a relaxed atmosphere to explore this dance, have fun, and move to great music. No dance experience is required. Please wear comfortable non-binding clothing and feel welcome to bring hip scarves, shawls, and/or a swash of fabric to use for hipwork.

Kristina Andriana Koutsoudas (pictured)  has been an independent choreographer, performer, and teacher of classical and folkloric cultural dance for more than 15 years. She has received many awards from both CACHH and TCA, and has taught and performed, locally and nationally, at several colleges, universities, public and private schools, theaters, and festivals.
