“Daytime to Gig Time–Contouring”: Transform your everyday look into a stunning, sculpted face using a few easy tools, products, and techniques for male and female performers alike (great for all genres of dance and video/photography shoots).

Participants should arrive with an “everyday” makeup application and bring all stage makeup tools and cosmetics, including false lashes. Never be stumped by contouring again!

“Add Dazzle To Your Dance”

One dancer fascinates the audience, while another has them checking Facebook postings during a show. Latifa’s past Best Face Forward workshops have focused on expression — and you know that subject is dear to her heart – but this workshop will incorporate movement techniques to generate energy and intensity, as Latifa was taught by Ibrahim Farrah. These technique will be illustrated by combinations that you can drop into your dancing immediately.

Latifa is a sought-after dance educator who shares her passion for Middle Eastern Dance, history and culture with enthusiastic students through weekly classes at Latifa’s School of Middle Eastern Dance and focused private lessons. She also directs a 12-dancer troupe, Banat al-Beled. Latifa is a protégée of the late Ibrahim Farrah.
