October 2008 in Beirut

Attended the Beirut Arab Film Festival while my video, "Rehearsal in Cairo" was screened as part of the 21st Instants Video 2008 on the 24th of November at the Dawar el Shams Arts Center near Tayuneh roundabout. http://www.instantsvideo.com/

Ballet classes in Beirut? at the Caracalla Dance Company (http://www.caracalladance.com/home.html).. on the far side of town. Most of the taxi drivers know where it is but you have to go there to get the schedule as it changes every season (with no website). Classes are in the evenings as all the company dancers and teachers have to have day jobs to support their participation in the most famous dance company in Lebanon! Email them for class details at info@caracalladance.com.

I'm still looking for a good ballet class in Trento, Italy.

Ballet classes for adults in Rome:
NO problem.. IALS is the incredible dance school for walk in ballet classes and lots of other movement classes. My wonderful teacher was Giancarlo Stiscia. http://www.ials.org/

In Paris: www.parisdanse.com ballet classes with Yves Cassati and Frederick

In New York: www.peridance.com/ ballet classes with Bill Badoloto, Graciella Kozak, and others. Limon is also taught here and much more with there new location on 13th Street between 3rd and 4th avenues.
