For this weeklong intensive we will dive deep into Egyptian style dance with two amazing guest instructors. As an Egyptian and British professional dancer based in Cairo, Zara brings a unique ability to not only share her technique, but also explain the nuances of Egyptian dance. Zara is an enthusiastic and inclusive instructor that is keen to share her culture and experience. The refined musicality of Melissa Gamal will be a beautiful addition to this Dreamcamp. Aziza has admired Melissa for many years and is thrilled that she will share two of her specialties for this intensive: Golde Era and Finger Cymbals.

A PLACE WHERE ONE FEELS LITTLE LIKE HOME!
For years I have had the dream of creating a fantasy dance camp. Imagine bringing together like minded students to immerse ourselves in learning, sharing, and dancing together in an organic environment.
Now it has come true! August 2022 will be the thirteen year we have presented Aziza Dreamcamps. Join me for 5 days of intensive instruction, bonfires, drumming, zilling, laughing, sweating, and celebrating. You will sleep comfortably in a converted convent located on Lake Raymond in Val Morin, Quebec.. Hike in the woods, plunge into a cool lake or sparkling swimming pool, share delicious meals, and make new dance friends.
Each Dreamcamp has a different focus. We have also invited some of my favourite international instructors to join me in the intensives. Invited master instructors include Valerick Molinary, Iza San, Sharon Kihara, Issam Houshan, Lena Helt, Bozenka, Mercedes Nieto, Azad Khan, Shahrzad, Sadie, Gamila, and Khalida. I also have loved presenting local talented dancers from Quebec and Ontario including Don Jordan, Maysam, Miryam Nunez, Zafirah, Florence, and Mayada, Technique intensives focus on getting back to the fundamentals of the dance with basic foundation technique. We work on posture and bodyline, stage presence, fluidity, isolations, improvisation, and combinations. We also delve into the arena of finger cymbals. Bring your zills on a guided hike through the woods, practicing basic patterns as we walk. During the week we concentrate on a single Oriental choreography, to better understand and explore the nuances of the music and movement, and go much deeper than in a one-time workshop. Also included are activities like crafts, games, special invited guests, video night, bonfires, and free time to round out a full experience.
Does this sound like your fantasy, too? Then please come and join us…
