Register here.

Join us for an open level 2-hour dabkeh workshop led by local group, Canadabkeh! We will learn the fundamentals of dabkeh footwork and a short choreographic phrase.

This workshop is co-organized by a group of local dance artists in solidarity with Palestinian liberation and interested in learning more about Palestinian cultural resistance through dabkeh. Canadabkeh was founded by Haytham and Zaid Alhamaydeh, two Palestinian brothers from Nablus. All in solidarity with Palestinian liberation are welcome!

ACCESSIBILITY: This is a masked event and extra masks will be available on site should you need one. We ask that if you are sick, to please take care and refrain from coming to the workshop. Dabke is a standing, footwork-focussed dance that includes stomping, jumping, close proximity and hand holding.
