Ok, Cairo! I began with a small adult ballet class at the Russian Cultural Center (no website!) with a lovely woman named Raisa Melnikova (who's schedule I can't guarantee) 127 Tahrir St., Dokki. (opposite the cinema Dokki) Tel: 760-6371. They have a ballet school for children but there is one class for adults (three of us) though only one hour long and only twice a week. Their English is not very good, you need to go to the office in person to confirm the classes and schedule.
Otherwise I tried to organize members of the Cairo Ballet to give lessons. I took a few lessons from a young German dancer who has most likely moved on. There was another studio near Square Lebenon, but after all this fishing about what I can recommend is Sami Allouba's fitness center with different locations all over the city where i finally settled down with basic pilates and belly dancing for locals (no fancy dress-ups, just jeans, your hips, bare feet, and great music).
