KC Raqs Presents BOZENKA

KC Raqs! 2022 is proud to present BOZENKA in a long-anticipated weekend of workshops! With a full three days of workshops, this is your chance to take your dancing to the next level!!! Lots of “NEW” this year:

-New venue: Friday and Saturday events will be held at Roeland Park Community Center. Sunday master class is at the Johnson County Arts and Heritage Center.

-New MASTER CLASSES: Friday afternoon classes are geared to the advanced and professional dancers, and offer smaller class sizes and technique that will take you to the next level! Sunday class is also a master class, so get ready to be challenged!

-New performance opportunities: 

• The Saturday evening showcase will feature some of the region's professional dancers and instructors! If you are a pro/teacher who has attended KC Raqs in the past, you can anticipate a performance invitation later in the spring. If you are a pro/teacher attending for the first time, feel free to contact Rahil (rahil.dances@gmail.com) to discuss your placement.
• There will also be a Friday evening hafla, open to dancers of all levels. Upon registration, if you mark that you are interested in performing, you will be emailed a performer application.
• Please note that spaces in both shows are first-come, first-considered. Registration for workshops is required for ALL performers. The show lists will be announced in early July, after early registration closes. Performers do not need to purchase a ticket for the show in which they are performing. If you purchase a "package" that includes a show ticket, you can pass it on to a friend or family member.
