DANCEHALL
Dancehall – my love – I’m back!
Dancehall is 1 of my 1st loves in dance, concentrating on this style from 2004 for 3-4 yrs, hanging with the Japanese dancehall queens, meeting crazy dancehall lovers from Spain – Sweden and of course the people from the caribeans during my stay in NYC and eventually traveling to Jamaica.
My love for this dance never faded even when I was expanding and learning many different styles from 2008. However the dancehall fiyah has definitely reignited in the last year, bursting with energy!
Thanks to all those with an incredible open mind and joined me for the performance course in the last few weeks and those who enjoyed all the previous dancehall workshops. And of course those who contacted me personally.
I’m now doing a regular weekly class on Sun 3-4pm! Come if you love dancehall/reaggae music, come if you love to dance, come if you love to pop your booty or whine to your fav song, DEF come if you want a WoRkOuT!! Hope to c you all hot and sweaty every Sunday!!
OZ Dancehall Queen Workshop
The Dancehall or Ragga sound as it is also known can be
identified mainly by digitized rhythms, sounds and strong bass
beats. Just like the music genre, the dance style is energetic,
powerful and raw whilst maintaining fluidity and control.
Nadiah’s unique style of Dancehall is blended with a hint of afro
flava and adapts a variety of street dance moves. Her workshop
will start off with drills and foundational moves to introduce
you to the style. If you are not sweating yet or your legs aren’t
burning by then, be prepared for Nadiah’s athletic higha level-
whining-heart pumping-bombastic routine! At the end of Nadiah’s
workshop, unlike many others, you’ll be a part of a liberating dance
experience where you’ll be given the rare opportunity to express
yourself with no rules and no boundaries!
DON’T MISS OUT!
Nadiah is a Brisbane based professional dancer and teacher and loves
sharing her passion for dance with others. When she is performing,
Nadiah aspires to evoke emotions and convey a message, whatever
it may be, to the audience through her physical expression with the
intention to move and/or inspire those watching.
Nadiah’s career highlights include backup dancing for
the Kanye West at Splendour in the Grass 2011, performing at
the Island Vibes Festival 2011 and Woodford Folk Festival 2011/
2012, performing with Indigenous Hip Hop Projects (Melbourne) at
Share the Spirit Festival 2012, co-choreographing and making an
appearance as the lead dancer in Enoch’s music video clip “If You
Like to Party”, performing as a principal dancer in the
of Grease at QPAC, performing and conducting dance workshops at
Australia Zoo for Bindi Irwin’s Rock & Roll 13th Birthday Celebration
and many more.
