Abstract
This narrative inquiry article tells the story of Al-Sarab Dance School, which began as a series of summer dance workshops taught by Nadra Assaf in the 1980s in and around Byblos, Lebanon. The workshops occurred during the Lebanese civil war and were an opportunity for the participating youth to process trauma, express their emotions, and experience a sense of freedom. After the war, Nadra established a dance school and grappled with the development of a dance education curriculum that celebrated and sustained Lebanese-ness. This narrative contributes much-needed curricular and pedagogical perspectives on dance education in the Middle East.
