Workshops in the areas of Object Manipulation, (hoop dance, juggling, poi and staff spinning),  and Yoga (and Acro Yoga & SLACK LINE) will run simultaneously, giving participants as many as 8 different flow arts workshop opportunities at any given time. This allows novice participants the option of sampling different skills sets and styles, and maintains the rigor of depth within each form for expert dancers looking to sharpen their skills.

Celebration of Dance 2026 - Crafting the American Cabaret Experience

Presented by Zerdali Dance Company

Saturday, September 12 
Ritz Midtown • 2201 Broadway St, Paducah, KY 42001 

Travel back to the lively nightclubs of the 1960s and 1970s, where American Cabaret bellydance thrived amid the rise of feminism and multiculturalism. In this workshop, Samira guides you through crafting a full-length, fully improvised set, structured around classic musical rhythms. You'll kick off with a spunky opening to hook the audience, glide into a captivating veil section, melt into an emotive floorwork sequence, and wrap up with a high-energy drum solo finale. This hands-on class dives into the art of improvisation and celebrates the bold, feminine spirit of this iconic dance era.
