ELCOME TO THE 17TH ANNUAL BEDOUIN
WHERE THE FUN NEVER STOPS. There
BAZAAR
I
trust all of you came by magic carpet since gas
prices are so high. I know you have many choices
of events to attend, so thank you for choosing the
Bedouin Bazaar.
I trust you had fun, met new people, and found that
treasure you just couldn’t live without. Thanks to the support
of the vendors, I am able to keep the price down and afford
this fantastic facility.
Next year the dates are October 7th and 8th, 2006, so
reserve the dates. See you next year.
May your personal genie grant you every wish and see
you safely home.

are new vendors to try this year as well
as our regulars. Some of my vendors have been with
me since the beginning. So, “Shop ‘til you Drop!”
When you need a break from shopping, relax and
enjoy the show. Dancers from all over have fun
performing at the Bazaar because the audience is so
enthusiastic!
Seminars this year include two days of double
veil by KAMAAL. One day just wasn’t enough to present
this exciting art form. On Saturday, FAHTIEM shows her
secrets in a class on movement to create drama. She
demonstrates hand and arm embellishments for
dynamic combinations on Sunday. H ASSAN DEEB returns
to the belly dance scene with EGYPTIAN C HOREOGRAPHY on
Saturday, and B ALANCING A TO Z on Sunday. All three
seminar instructors are veterans with a wealth of
knowledge and experience to impart.
DESERT WIND is playing outside the box with
innovative music for our performances. They will play
Saturday in the afternoon, and again at the BEDOUIN
BAZAAR B ASH Saturday night. This year features
S CHERAZADE AND THE B AD B OYS OF BELLY DANCE. HASSAN DEEB,
K AMAAL, and M ARZUE promise a very naughty night at
the CONGREGATION DOR HADASH just minutes away from
the AL BAHR S HRINE CENTER. There will be open dancing,
so come out and have a blast. JOHN B ILEZIKJIAN AND THE
BEDOUIN B AZAAR BAND will play on Sunday afternoon.
Enjoy your weekend and mark your calendars for
next year’s BAZAAR: O CTOBER 7TH AND 8 TH, 2006. Seminars
will feature DAV ID OF SCANDINAVIA and JUDEEN. Visit my
website at www.bedouinbazaar.org. Kudos for my

F AHTIEM is truly one of the superstars of
belly dance. Her versatility as a
performer, choreographer, instructor,
and sponsor makes her one of the most
sought after teachers in the nation! She
has been featured in many television
and film programs. Her O ASIS D ANCE
M AGIC is one of the top quality shows
which has helped to elevate the calibre
of belly dance and educate the general public. Her seminars convey
a subtle nuance combined with form and technique which makes
for magical performances.
HASSAN D EEB is an award winning dancer with over 20 years of
experience. He comes to us from Santa Clara county (the Bay Area).
He is an excellent instructor and has coached dancers for competition. His seminars are always fun and informative. Hassan volunteers his time to teach belly dancing to both men and women who
are terminally ill. He also teaches free art classes at hospices. You
will find him selling at A RTEMIS ’ booth on the main floor. And to see
his “bad self,” don’t miss the Saturday evening show at D OR H ADASH .

KAMAAL’S light hearted style
enthralls audiences everywhere.
He has won MR. AMERICA OF BELLY
DANCE several times, and is a 20
year veteran of the dance. His
seminars are well received. Each
participant feels empowered and
enthusiastic because they has a great time learning. He volunteers his
time at many events. He is also one of my “naughty boys” along with
Hassan and Marzue at the B EDOUIN BAZAAR BASH on Saturday night. This is
Kamaal’s farewell performance. We will miss him!

D AVID will introduce you to Shaabi , an upbeat, flirty and fun
dance style of Egypt. Shaabi is a blend between folklore dances
from the countryside and dances of the urban areas. Known
for it's playful characteristics, Shaabi will add some spice on

celebrations of Punjab, India, but now has been westernized to
be trendy, funky, and sizzling. This is a fun, full body workout.
