La Ronge women travel to Toronto for intensive dance workshop
Two women from La Ronge are back from Toronto after a four-day intensive Arabic and Egyptian dance workshop.
Charlene Bosiak and Christen Ross participated in the workshop hosted by Yasmina Ramzy, a well-known teacher, choreographer and director of raqs sharqi. The classes, which were held five hours per day, were attended by approximately 20 dancers from mostly across Canada.
“It’s just basically to kick start your practice, so there’s no performance or anything with this one, it’s basically technique,” Bosiak explained.
“Her classes are for people who want a more in depth. It’s kind of like a kick start from COVID to kind of get us going a little bit. It’s more intensive than regular classes. There’s choreography and there’s technique classes.”
