“I just returned from Mohamed el Hosseny's  weekend workshop in San Francisco. Seen through the eyes of a contemporary theatrical dancer, we covered Simsimmiya, Beledi, and saucy Awalem styles. His workshop was like none that I've experienced before. He is a passionate, top-knotch performer, where dance and music beats through his every breath, and honestly he is the most precise technician I have ever seen. Zsuzsi as always was a wonderful host, and she and her colleagues organized the dance space and 2 fantastic shows held at the most perfect, charming venues. The  entire weekend event is one I will never forget. Days later, I am still high  on dancing. Thank you soooo much for bringing el Hosseny to California!”
