Cane Intensive with Chantal
Sunday, December 2, 2007
Chantal in Saidi costumeStart with the basics and try your hand at the more complex uses of the cane (Raks Assaya). Chantal is offering 3 - 1 hour sessions starting with holding & twirling to flipping & catching. Do one, two or all three hours to learn this fun, audience pleasing skill. Space is strictly limited!

Hooked on the Basics
Starting from scratch with holding and twirling, we'll learn the proper technique and drill the basic movements of the hooked cane. No experience necessary!

Cane Combos
In this hour, we'll use basic hooked cane technique layered with dance movement in cool combos. You will also be introduced to the differences between stage and folk use of the assaya.

Off the Hook
We'll drill the basic technique of the straight, or hook-less, cane. A fun and dynamic prop, the possibilities are endless when you're 'off the hook'!
