Saidi Stick Dance from the South of Egypt with Karim Nagi

As a follow up to Karim Nagi’s video, Saidi Rhythms from the South of Egypt, learn the movements that compliment traditional rhythms from his native country, Egypt. In this video, Karim teaches a southern Egyptian dance called Raqs Assaya, otherwise known as the stick dance. This dance can be done with anything from a stick to a pool noodle to a Pringle's can; just make sure you have an open space and permission from an adult.
