Performance at <st1:city><st1:place>Dubai</st1:place></st1:city> The weekend before last I was performing at the Buddha Bar in <st1:city><st1:place>Dubai</st1:place></st1:city> to an audience that included rich and famous expatriates such as the Duchess of York and other fancy names that I don’t recognize since I don’t read Hello.  On stage right after us was Kelly Roland, (from Destiny’s Child) and then some fancy Ibiza DJ who kept the club pumping whilst the invite only guests bought up the million pound penthouses on the man-made archipelago ‘The World.’  It was a bizarre and fun experience.   The sea was amazingly warm, the inside of the hotels uncomfortably cold, the part of town that caters to the locals swarms with men.  I was there with three female flamenco dancers, a guitarist and violinist.&nb sp; The men stared at the girls, sleazy like they claimed.  I just thought the poor men just looked nervous.  Like some exotic aliens had landed in their midst.  Anyway, we stared back so who’s to say? We performed a 15 minute new choreography, a mix of flamenco and tango, accompanied by a violinist and flamenco guitarist.  There were three female flamenco dancers and me.  The show was screened on a big screen behind us whilst we were dancing, so we’ll hopefully be able to get some of the footage and I’ll send you all some if we do!  (Well as long as my hairdo stayed in place, obviously.)<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div align="center" style="text-align: center;" class="MsoNormal"> <hr align="center" width="100%" size="2" /> </div> <o:p> </o:p> 3. Other Workshops around the <st1:country-region><st1:place>UK</st1:place></st1:country-region> <o:p> </o:p> Don’t forget you can find all my workshops and performances on the calendar page on the website, for example this coming weekend we’re teaching and performing in <st1:city><st1:place>Manchester</st1:place></st1:city>, and in November I’m running a Body Awareness, Isolations and Spinning Technique workshop for the London Swing Dance Society, 9th of November.  <o:p> </o:p> <a href="http://www.jango.co.uk/Calendar.html">http://www.jango.co.uk/Calendar.html</a><o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Take care and  hope to see you soon!<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> X<o:p></o:p> Amir<o:p></o:p> </td> </tr> </table>
