ZEINA - Mohammed Abdul Wahab
This is the song we’re using for our Beginners’ classes. Here’s a little guide on the song to help shaping your mood in interpreting the dance.
The line ZEINA ZEINA WALLAH YA ZEINA YA ZEINA is being repeated over & over in the song and here’s what it meant: (Zeina is a female name that means the beautiful http://babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/meaning_of_Zeina.html) and the run on lines say: Oh Zeina, my God oh Zeina.
So this is the context, let’s interpret & dance with our own attitude towards this ‘desperate & yearning man looking at us with utter admiration!’ You can also listen to the original composition here (sung by 1 lead & group of chorus) http://lyle.smu.edu/~saad/abdelwahab/music.html , let me talk more abt Mohammed Abdel Wahab next time!

She has learnt Classical Egyptian to Tribal Fusion style from masters including Hossam & Serena Ramzy, Yasmina Ramzy, Asmahan, Tamalyn Dallel and Susan Frankovich etc. Her rich background of Jazz and other Asian ethnic dances from Malaysia, Thailand and Philippines have also enriched her movement vocabularies .
Ada's passion in cultural issues have also led her to be the Researcher & Presenter for an RTHK Documentary about the lost song & dance in Chinese minorities.
Ada is experienced in teaching to all ages. She's well-loved by students for her anatomic approach with movements and emphasis in the therapeutic effect of belly dancing to a woman's body & soul. She insists in keeping classes organised by herself small and intimate to give sufficient attention to individuals.
"Ada is so good to work with, she's very versatile, very sensitive to music and always come up with surprising interpretation spontaneously." Ceyan, Dj: Turkish, Arabic, Latin, Asian, Greek Plus Live Darbuka Drums
"Ada's show is always engaging and well-loved! Always on demand!" Youseff, Manager, Momo Lounge
