Selam dancers,
I have just joined the list, two years after I initially intended to. I am newly established in Istanbul, working on dance and language and life in the most beautiful city in the world.
I am looking forward to this list. I want to say here in my introduction that I am currently learning, sharing and developing dance based on traditional Turkish dance forms; folk, Ottoman, Roman, oriental, etc...
I have alot of background in North African and Gulf styles of Raqs Sharqi/Shaabi etc., and spent alot to time with Egyptian and American Tribal. The last few years have drawn me strongly to The Turkish disapora, and also contemporary dance. I am really enjoying it.
I am interested in sharing and recieving resources, information and performances. And I am certainly excited to meet new dancers.
Turkiyi'da misin? Cevap bekliyorum.
Best to everyone,
Jennet Shook
