aHlan wa Sahlan
As-salaam alaykum! Happy August friends! While the days have gotten hot and sticky, we are still dancing up a storm as we gather community together in resilience, advocacy, and celebration. Last month we had an amazing time dancing in the California redwoods, diving into the rich training of Iraqi Dance with Mohanned Hawaz for our 2026 intensive, and more. This month we are excitedly holding auditions for our Los Angeles chapter, gearing up for a new season of cultural arts, and thrilled to be performing in a wide range of public events. We hope to see you! Thank you for supporting Arabic culture and arts. Keep dancing and nurturing your joy in this life. Free Falastin! Melt ice! We will dancing this world into liberation together.
