Bellydance blogging in Edinburgh, Scotland. Sunday, 22 April 2012. Workshop review: Golden Age of Bellydance with Emma Chapman, 21 April 2012. This was Emma Chapman. S first workshop in Scotland. I saw her perform at last year's Shimmy in the City. And thought she was amazing. When I heard she was coming to Edinburgh I asked if she would consider teaching, and she said yes. Emma had chosen Samia Gamal. And her hip work is incredible - she has such control and precision in her pelvis! Musselburgh. The...

Secrets from Habiba's Diary: May 2013
http://habibadance.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Secrets from Habiba's Diary. Dancing, performing, teaching, whirling and always learning…. Thursday, 30 May 2013. Earlier this month, I thoroughly enjoyed watching an evening of ballet performances, at Edinburgh Ballet Circle’s annual showcase, at the St Bride’s Centre, Edinburgh. It really reminded me how great it is within the Egyptian Dance or Belly Dance community, to have performing opportunities for student dancers to express themselves, whether at a local hafla, festival or community show. It ...

Bellydance blogging in Edinburgh, Scotland. Monday, 29 October 2012. I just realised that I didn't post about what an amazing success the Bellydance Flashmob was, back in July!

It was lunchtime on Sunday at the National Museum of Scotland, busy with families and tourists, and suddenly - there we were! Monday, 15 October 2012. The cause for...

Secrets from Habiba's Diary. Dancing, performing, teaching, whirling and always learning…. Thursday, 27 December 2012. 12 months in 12 sentences for 2012. This time last year I was inspired to write a post reviewing 2011 in just 12 sentences. I like the format and wanted do it again. So here's my write up of 12 in 12 for 2012. Wishing you a Happy New Year and I hope that 2013 brings you lots of shimmy and sparkle. I started learning Awareness Through Movement. And was a busy bee planning for Baladi Blues.

Secrets from Habiba's Diary. Dancing, performing, teaching, whirling and always learning…. Saturday, 22 February 2014. Kichree - Iraqi rice and lentils with garlic and cumin. I promised a friend I would share this recipe for kichree (كجري), a traditional Iraqi dish of rice and red lentils, with tomato, cumin and plenty of garlic. It's similar to the Egyptian kushwaree, and much more distantly related to kedgeree. 3 tbsp olive oil. Small onion, chopped. 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped. 3 tbsp tomato puree.

Secrets from Habiba's Diary. Dancing, performing, teaching, whirling and always learning…. Tuesday, 1 May 2012. Habiba Dance is on the Move! We were together two and a half years, but sadly now we must part. It's out with the old and in with the new at Habiba Dance HQ, as my new, even shinier website is being built as we speak. I'm really excited about it and I can't wait for the big reveal, coming soon to a computer screen near you! Or email me: habibadance AT ymail.com. Domain is showing a 404 error.
