Leilethob Veil Dance

Beginner Level Belly Dance Choreography Course

Leilethob, pronounced Lay-let-hope meaning "A Night of Love" is a classical Middle Eastern song by Mohammed Abel Wahab, one of the most prolific and influential of Egyptian composers of the 20th century. The choreography is quintessential Belly Dance in what we call "American Fantasy" style, meaning that it is just what imagine when you imagine a belly dancer. Graceful, feminine, mysterious and utterly breath-taking. You will learn traditional cabaret belly dance footwork and posture, paired with very modern and absolutely gorgeous veil work. This is such a beautiful dance. You are going to fall head over sparkly heels in love with Leilethob.
