Middle
Eastern Dance Classes
The Cassandra School is dedicated to serving the needs of its students
and the art of Middle Eastern dance. Year-round classes are offered at
three locations in 10-week sessions. The school offers five different
levels from beginner to professional. Because of the cumulative nature
of the classes, first-time beginner students may only enroll during the
first 3 weeks of a new session. All continuing students are welcome on
a drop-in basis. On-going and transfer students are expected to master
the material of the current level and are encouraged to consult with the
teacher for assistance in proper placement and/or advancement.
Spring Session
begins April 7, 2008 and runs for 10 weeks

Technique Intensive focuses on mastering technique
- making it your own, incorporating it into body memory and vocabulary
until you can command it effortlessly to express yourself through music

as well as intermediate and advanced techniques.
