Experience the vibrant culture of the Amazigh people through a series of dance workshops led by the renowned Amel Tafsout. NOLA'Amazigh: Dance Workshops with Amel Tafsout will take place in the beautiful city of New Orleans at the Crescent Lotus Dance Studio. Immerse yourself in the rich traditions of Moroccan Shaabi, Houara, Amazigh Shimmies, and Guedra dances. 

Morocco, known for its diverse dance forms, is deeply rooted in the indigenous Amazigh heritage. One of the highlights of the workshops is the Moroccan Chaabi dance, a folk style that is commonly performed at weddings and festivals. This energetic dance incorporates slow and fast isolated hip movements, sharp body movements, belly drops, and graceful hand movements inspired by the music. 

The Houara dance, originating from the Houara tribe in southern Morocco, is a lively community dance that combines singing, footwork, flamenco-like barrel turns, and jumping. This mixed-gender folk dance is performed in a tightly packed circle, showcasing intricately choreographed routines. The dance reaches its peak when a woman rushes to the center, captivating the audience with her powerful whirls. 

Explore the dance of the Kabyl people, a fertility dance from the North-Eastern Algerian Mountains. This earthy and proud dance is performed with small and fast hip movements, symbolizing pregnancy and fertility. 

End your dance journey with the spiritual Guedra dance, a traditional circle dance performed exclusively by women. Originating from the Blue People of the Tuareg Amazigh, this ritual dance aims to envelop all present with positive energy and spiritual love.

Don't miss this opportunity to learn from Amel Tafsout, a master instructor who brings the essence of Amazigh dance, music, and culture to life. Sign up now for NOLA'Amazigh: Dance Workshops with Amel Tafsout and embrace the beauty of Amazigh traditions.

I&#39;m a history buff and the national ww2 museum was a long awaited trip. It was an easy 20 mins walk from the French quarter. We ended up spending well past 5 hours here. There is just so much information to read and all very interesting. It&#39;s a well done exhibit and strongly recommended for those with an interest in history and world war 2 era.

Jackson Square

Historic buildings

小思文

Jackson Square is also a more distinctive building, the surrounding is not very prosperous, there are fewer people at night, the tour group is not too much, the center of the square is erected a statue, the specific character history is not clear.

The French-speaking area of New Orleans is also a large area, and many things here can also be visited. The French-speaking area has some interesting little designs, which are designed according to different specifications of the layout here, and I like the appearance here.
