Hello Alicja,These classes will help anyone in the follow role prepare for couple dancing. For example, you can take these classes, go to a social event, and likely be able to follow with a lead dancer. We are considering bringing a few couples classes here, too, but the demand has not been sufficient to do it just yet.

Hi Melanie,Great question!!! I need to disclose that I am not a scholar; that is important because academic scholars scour the available history to find answers to such great questions as yours. As far as I know, we do not have any definitive data on that. But I can share a few things with you. Drums are the oldest recorded instruments. Humans have been dancing to drums literally forever. For example, the Indian Tabla dates back two millennia. We know there are ancient Indian dances that were directly linked to the tabla. Some of those traditions have been traced to the migration of the Romani and Domari, who ended up in places like Egypt, North Africa, etc. Pharaonic people in Egypt also played drums. Now, bringing it to modern times, Raqs Sharqi evolved with live music, of which drums were always a part. You can see dancers accentuating the drum rhythm and accents in the 30,40s and 50s. However, there were some changes in the 50s that may have led the way to the modern drum solos.Β
