One
thing I've learned about summer living in Toronto: when it is hot in
the city, it is always cooler down by the Toronto Beaches Boardwalk.
Whether it is Woodbine Beach, KEW Beach, Scarborough Beach or Balmy
Beach, every part of the Beaches Boardwalk is perfect for taking a slow
stroll, sitting by the water and enjoying the fresh breezes coming off
Lake Ontario. If I'm wilting from high temperatures, an afternoon by
the water will always pick me up.
There
is always something interesting to see or do on the Boardwalk. There
are people water-skiing, sea-dooing, para-sailing, sailing, yaughting,
swimming, flying kites, playing volleyball or tennis, roller skating,
cycling, jogging, sun-bathing, having picnics and BBQ's with their
families and sweethearts and more.
At various times I might encounter
people offering massages or tarot readings, musicians of all kinds
busking for tuition, martial arts demonstrations of different styles
and schools, and drumming and dancing events from all parts of the
globe and many cultures. With all these attractions, it's easy to
understand why the Beaches Boardwalk is a popular destination for local
Torontonians as well as tourists. If I have to be in the city, it's certainly my favorite place to be in the summer.
It's
where I plan to be this Sunday July 15 from 3:30 to 4:30 pm. I will be
taking full advantage of the opportunity to have a free outdoor
Egyptian Belly Dance and drum lesson with the enchanting "Ambassador of
Egyptian Dance in Canada" (quote by Fifi Abdou), native Egyptian dance artist Nada El Masriya accompanied by a true master of Middle Eastern drumming Mr. Joe Srouji.
For those who just can't stop their hips from moving to the beat of a live drum, this will be a fun chance to learn a short Egyptian belly dance choreography with an authentic, world class Egyptian Belly Dancer originally from Cairo, and to dance to some irresistable rhythms driven by incredibly talented and powerful Middle Eastern Tabla player Joe Srouji.

For
those souls who's hearts and hands feel compelled to beat out rhythms
on drums, this is a great opportunity to drum with someone who grew up
in a family of traditional Middle Eastern musicians. Drumming is in the
blood and bones of his ancestors and professional percussionist Joe
Srouji keeps this ancient pulse pounding family and cultural tradition
thriving.
If you prefer to watch, this will be a exciting event to attend which will contribute to the overall beauty of the Beach Boardwalk experience. Prepare to be mesmerized by the elegance of Nada demonstrating Egyptian belly dance moves in one of her exquisite Egyptian dance costumes to thrilling rhythms from Joe Srouji.
Nada and Joe won't decide on the exact spot on the Boardwalk to set up until much closer to the date. To find out the specific location in the Beach and reserve your free spot, contact the Egyptian Dance Academy.
