INTENSIVE MONTHLY WORKSHOPS
You wish to train in the Salimpour formats but you are unable to join Maëlle's weekly classes? Or you are already training in the Salimpour formats but you wish to train more intensively? Then these intensive monthly workshops are perfect for you.
Each workshop consists in two hours of Suhaila Salimpour technique and one hour of Jamila Salimpour steps and cymbals playing, with a nice break and a cool down with some good stretching. It is a multi-level workshop, which means that beginning and more advanced dancers train together and are given specific exercices adapted to their own level.
In order to take part in the monthly workshops, you must already know the basics of the Salimpour formats. As a minimum prerequisite, you should have attended:

In order to take part in the monthly workshops, you must already know the basics of the Salimpour formats. As a minimum prerequisite, you should have attended:
- an introductory workshop;
- or at least 8 weekly classes
- or some Salimpour format workshops.
Indeed:
- The Suhaila Salimpour format is so different from other belly dance techniques that all dancers must start with the basics, regardless of their previous belly dance experience.
- Jamila Salimpour's vocabulary of steps is very specific and requires practice in order for dancers to be able to transition fluidly between steps, executing them correctly, while playing finger cymbals all along!
