Jamilia Salimpour's Bal Anat
inspired what is now three
generations of oriental dancers,
and is the recognised origin of
"American Tribal Movement" in
all its many variations. Aida Al
Adawi, who is honored to have
had the opportunity to study
with Jamila Salimpour, was her
teaching assistant for many
years in San Francisco.

Middle Eastern Dance Ensemble
Founded by Aida in 1988, the Middle Eastern Dance Ensemble preforms
traditional Arabic dance accompanied by live music in a variety of venues, most
notably, the Michigan Renaissance Festival.
The Middle Eastern Dance Ensemble was inspired by the original Bal Anat,
of which Aida was a member (pictured here, second from the left), performing
at the Renaissance Pleasure Fair in California during the entire decade of the
Seventies.
