Karl Johan Street, Oslo |
A perfect day to say my thanks for the wonderful time I got to spend there for the
second time this year, at Siri and Catherine Ydstie's
Oslo 1001 Nights festival the first weekend of May.

After the shimmy class |
Norway is a special place to me dance-wise, as it was one of the first countries where I got to travel for teaching a 'full' workshop-and-show weekend, and although I was pretty nervous about it at that time, I absolutely loved it. Since then I've been lucky enough to have traveled there 3 more times, and it always feels like 'home' to me.

Back in the day - Oslo 2010 |
Below are some
pictures and videos of the latest edition of Oslo 1001 Nights festival. Co-teacher and guest performer was the fabulous
Guy Shalom of
Baladi Blues. Hope you'll enjoy!
Video of my fan veil performance - music by
House of Tarab - check them out!
And a small cameo at the end of this drum solo with the infamous Shimmy Sistahs (Siri and Cath)
So much fun :) A huge thanks again to all workshop participants and supporters of the festival, the working team, the most appreciative audience, my lovely co-performers and teachers and of course to my hosting ladies, the Ydstie sisters.
