Moorish
dance
We call Moorish Dance to a dance interpretation of the cultural cross that happened in Al-Andalus, by the end of the XV Century, where Spain met Middle East. The Moorish dance is not a folk dance, but a “departure dance”. An artistic recreation that combines the Oriental dance (Raks Sharki and Raqs Shaabi) with Flamenco. Drawing imaginary lines in between as different dance vocabularies but sharing one destiny. Our Moorish Dance has not only a nostalgic sweetness but also an
extraordinary inner strength. An art form which radiates its own
personality for both the West & East worlds, and where the Gypsy’s
identity acts as a vessel for intercultural values.
