Marianna - Shamadan

The Shamadan or candle dance is an origiinal wedding dance  from Egypt. The Shamadan is simply the peak of each big party.

By Shamadan we don't talk about the dance but the candleholder.It requires quite some exercise to both balance the Shamadan and to dance with power and drive.

Traditionally for the Shamadan closed and long costumes are used.
