Aszmara will teach a full choreography using veil to the song "Hayati Inta" by Natacha Atlas. The class will focus on technique, building to a choreography that will lead students of any level into a complete study of the depth of movement behind "the Passionate Veil."

Aszmara performs with an electric excitement of dance and music. A leader in the field of Oriental dance, Aszmara's dance interprets the music with her own blend of modern, traditional and folkloric Arabic and Turkish music.
