Workshopy a pravidelné lekce
Oriental Weekend 22-23 November 2025
We invite you to a weekend of dance that reconnects you with your body, rhythm, and inner joy.
Over two days, we will gather in an intimate studio space to explore the layers of belly dance from its delicate, feminine poetry to its vibrant and joyful heartbeat.
Guided by Buse Özmen, founder of Somatic Oriental®, this workshop series weaves together the richness of oriental dance with a somatic approach that centers listening, presence, and personal expression. Buse’s background in dance therapy and performance invites a unique atmosphere where movement becomes more than choreography, it becomes a living dialogue between body, rhythm, and emotion.
November 22 – Belly Dancing with Shawl
A soft, flowing exploration of belly dance with the shawl as our companion.
The shawl, in this context, is not just a prop—it becomes an extension of the dancer's breath and presence. We will move through sequences that invite fluidity and grace, as well as improvisational moments where personal expression can emerge freely.
This session is especially supportive for those who wish to explore the emotional and poetic dimensions of oriental dance. By working with the shawl, we open new possibilities for storytelling, softness, and inner connection.
Please bring your own shawl as a dance partner :)
Time: 12.00-16.00
November 23 – Rhythm & Joy in Belly Dance
A vibrant, uplifting session focused on rhythm as a gateway to joy.
This workshop invites the body to listen, respond, and celebrate rhythm not only as a musical structure, but as a living pulse within us. We will explore basic Middle Eastern rhythmic patterns, playful movement combinations, and ways to embody rhythm through grounded, expressive dancing.
Together, we’ll cultivate a light-hearted and energizing atmosphere where movement becomes celebration. The session is accessible and deeply nourishing for both beginners and experienced dancers looking to reconnect with joy and spontaneity.
Time: 12.00-16.00
Both workshops are open-level and can be attended individually or together as a weekend immersion.
They are held in English in a small group setting to support individual attention and connection.
Price: 1400 Kč for 1 day / 2500 Kč both days
