LEILA FARID OF CAIRO, EGYPT AND PRODUCER OF CAMP
NEGUM
Leila has been living and working
in Cairo for 13 years. She started her dance career at a restaurant
in the Cairo Sheraton Hotel. She has also worked at Nile Pharoah
Boat, Semiramis Hotel and at Nile Maxim Boat. She is currently working
at the 7 star Fairmont Nile City. She is also a prominent wedding
dancer and high profile entertainer in her field. Leila also
produces many CDs for dancers with her husband Safaa Farid who
is a popular singer and musician in Cairo. She has a dance camp
called Camp Negum which she holds twice a year in different locations
in Egypt. Leila travels and teaches internationally and has
a beautiful Egyptian style of dance that she has developed through
the years.
Leila loves to teach workshops
that include more than just dance technique. This is why she started
Camp Negum and why she was part of our 4/4 Workshops a couple of years
ago. On June 20 and 21 Leila will be part of El Fan an Egyptian dance,
music, drumming and cultural seminar. Check back next week for more
