Persian-Iranian Traditional and Pop Dance for Adults/Teens

​​

Persian Pop+

All Levels - Beginner Friendly

Mondays 6:30-7:30pm MT

In this all-levels Persian Pop+ class, dancers practice fun, choreographed combinations using Persian-Iranian movement vocabulary to popular Iranian music. Plus (+) the last class each month is dedicated to non-Pop traditional music and dance.

Persian-Iranian Pop dance, known in Persian as "Mehmooni", is a playful style perfect for parties or staged performances, but it also serves as an excellent entryway to more advanced Persian dance stylizations since it uses the same foundational movement vocabulary. The last class each month dedicated to non-Pop music allows for engaging in the complex world of Persian classical music in the Radif system and other traditional music genres and practicing accompanying dance stylizations including Sama/mystical, Ruhowzi and more.
