Melaya Leff Egyptian Dance Workshop with Maia

Sweet and just a pinch of sassy, join Maia Alexandra for a fun mini Melaya Leff choreography!
This workshop will go over some of the basic history and stylization of the Melaya (Millaya/Malaya etc). This outer garment was used originally as a modesty garment, later becoming the basis of a folkloric fantasy tableau dance. Come see what it's all about!
Bring your Melaya (or your heaviest, widest veil). Dancing in heels is optional, but extra credit!
