Im so glad you are enjoying the classes Sergej!

I'd love to see that Elena!!

Hi Laura , More or less, yes. Golden Era dance would be considered Raqs Sharqi. Oriental is a bit more modern of a label given to the dance but is frequently used in Egypt, Lebanon and Turkey among other countries. They may be used interchangeable for sure. I don't think I would call Golden Era Oriental, but I would call it Raqs Sharqi. Again, these terms and how they are used is a bit ambiguous and I am sorry for that. Even my Egyptian teachers I asked have differing opinions on the matter. Golden Era is more of a western term for that specific genre. You got me thinking now and if i get some time I will try to write a blog helping to clarify.

I'm so happy you enjoyed this class Michelle!! 

Hi Paula, I just got those up. We had an issue with our photoshop to make the thumbnails.
