Diane and Ellie are delighted to welcome back Béatrice, a truly inspirational teacher, for another weekend of workshops this summer. The workshop times are designed to give those travelling from further afield a pleasant weekend in Dorset and for those using public transport we will endeavour to help you reach the venue cheaply and easily. There are plenty of places to stay locally and there a good village store nearby. Béatrice Grognard divides her time between Europe, Cairo and Brussels where, in 1998, she founded the "Tarab, School of Theatrical Dances of Egypt". Throughout Europe and in Egypt, she passes on the spirit and technique of traditional female dances and offers regular workshops in England, Switzerland, Italy, France, Spain and Finland. Trained as an archaeologist, Béatrice has always had true passion about arts and dance. Since 1991, Beatrice has devoted herself exclusively to dance and choreography and, thanks to her tremendous enthusiasm, has dedicated herself to defending the beauty and the authenticity of traditional Egyptian dances. Her quest today is directly linked to her original interest in archaeology: to bring forward Egyptian dance and the music of the past, redefine their boundaries and breath new life into them with theatricality introduced on stage, therefore ensuring them new life and a future. During her frequent trips to Egypt, Béatrice travels to many towns and villages in search of traditional music and movements. As a complete, graceful, dignified artistic discipline, the theatrical dance of Egypt is a refined and complex art standing apart its "orientalised" alternatives prevalent over the last decades. Whether on the stage or through her teaching, the work of Béatrice can be compared with that on flamenco several decades ago: how to breathe life back into a universe of dance which has been forgotten and misinterpreted, how to preserve the quintessential nature of the dances of Egypt whilst infusing them with a rich and refreshing modernity at the same time. | ||
