So for authentic Egyptian style, who do we like?
1. You all know I love Shareen el Safy, so I'll vote for her instructionals in a heartbeat.
2. Although I haven't yet bought it, I know our own A'isha has an instructional out!
3. I like Habiba's Quickstart and Gawaher set -- Quickstart is the beginner and Gawaher is the intermediate/advanced, with a choreography.
4. Raqia Hassan's technique vids.
5. Mona Said's workshop vid from the ICMED. LOVE this -- it's just demonstrations, but it's SUPER helpful for understanding true Egyptian style.
6. Faten Salama's vids. Anyone have a favorite?
7. Faten Munger's (5 parts now? I think)
8. Nashwa (2 dvds now and a performance show. I love her style.)
9. Little Egypt workshop vids. (I love em, lots of people hate em)
10. Zahra Zuhair's videos (I like her homemade ones better than the IAMED one)
Who else are your faves, and have you run across Egyptian style instructionals that really AREN'T ?? (Billed as Egyptian, but more Western?)
What do we think of Beata and Horacio's Oriental Fantasy videos?
What do we think of Serena Ramzy's "Visual Melodies" ?
