Certified instructor description: Arabian Nights: Secrets of the Desert is a live performance DVD program that tells the story of two princesses, Noura and Laila (in Arabic, the words for "night" and "light”), who are united by love and sacrifice, but divided by their beliefs in tradition and family honor. An arranged marriage by their strict father, the king, sets in motion a series of dramatic events that will captivate the audience until the very end. The lavish stage production with stunning choreography and exquisite costumes utilizes a fusion of belly dance, hip hop, aerial techniques and more to tell the spell-binding story of forbidden love, tradition, honor and duty. Set against a backdrop of the magical and mystical world of Middle Eastern culture, profound issues such as democracy and women's rights are explored. Arabian Nights: Secrets of the Desert is a feast for the senses.
