Amel Tafsout’s Weekly Classes
“You may believe you are seeking Amel for dance lessons. Perhaps you believe she’ll teach you to speak Arabic, or to sing charming North African songs, or to play a hand drum, but it is only Spirit, luring you, inviting you to listen more deeply to the longings of your Soul. To work with Amel is to have the secrets of the Universe revealed, one giggle at a time. For when you stand next to this Sister, the beauty of life and the depth of our humanity, are all revealed, whether clapping our hands, or stamping our feet – shaking the foundations of our life …all because we thought we were going to take a dance class.”
– Shamsi Sunshine (Sept. 2013)
