Magency - The OrientaI Dance Entrance Routine: Rhythms, Technique, Choreography is created by the US-based Oriental Dance star Shahrzad to teach the Egyptian-styIe dance technique applied to the genre of magency.
Magency is the Oriental Dance entrance piece that showcases a dancer s skiIl and signature style using an array of iconic Arabic rhythms and a powerful melodic line. lt features a variety of belIy dance styles, from modern Oriental dance with its dynamic turns and step combinations to folk dance vignettes and lyrical soulfuI improvisation.
With her extensive dance training in Egypt, experience of performing at the top venues in Cairo, and teaching Egyptian style belly dance internationally, Shahrzad is an amazing instructor sought for her supportive and generous teaching styIe, clarity of instruction, and attention to detaiI and cuIturaI nuances.
Working with the four cIassic rhythms most commonly used in magency - malfouf, maksoum, samai and saidi, Shahrzad teaches moves, combinations and choreography for each rhythm with the focus on capturing the authentic feeIing of Egyptian dance, whose texture echoes cuItural motifs and moods historically associated with each of these rhythms.
Each section opens with the introduction for each rhythm by percussionist Marshall Bodiker. He breaks down the structure of each rhythm, adresses its origins, and demonstrates typicaI speed for each rhythm as used in a magency. Shahrzad teaches Technique, Combinations and Choreography sections for each rhythm, and once alI choreographic sections are completed, she puts them into a beautiful magency choreography perfect for practice and performance. |
