My Dancers learn to:
1- Help Each Other Flow.
2- Practice Mindful Movement.
3- Communicate ideas with clarity.
I build meaningful dancers — for films, shows, or simply to grow.
"IBDAW" is pronounced "Ibdaa" — the Arabic word for create.
In 2012, I stood on stage and realized I was just following orders — “bend your knee, straighten your arm” — not because it meant anything, but because the choreographer wanted it that way. I could not ask why. I could not even question it.
That moment broke something in me.
I did not want to perform empty shapes anymore. I wanted to move with meaning — to speak through my body, not decorate space.
That is why I created IBDAW 2012–2024:
IBDAW is not a dance style. It is a way of thinking about dance.
It is rooted in the Safie Weight Philosophy, which allowed me to form these 5 key elements that set IBDAW apart:
1- Trains the dancer to become the idea.
2- Speaks many vocabularies, belongs to none.
3- Builds movement from meaning, not imitation.
4- Refines movement through clarity and efficiency.
5- Rooted in real experience, not performance culture.
So, I build meaningful dancers — for films, shows, or simply to grow.
🟢 Public Definition: I Breathe. Dance. All Ways.
🔒 Practitioner Definition: A precise framework known only to those who walk the inner path of the method.
IBDAW was not born to perform or please the crowd — it was born to communicate the truth of a moment. A method built on real ideas, real stories — not fantasy. While it draws from ballet, modern, and contemporary dance techniques—basic positions, rolling, jumping, shifting, lifting, partnering, off-balance control, flow, and more—its true purpose is revealed in performance. In IBDAW, we take a clear idea — and translate it into clear, logical movement. IBDAW uses any movement vocabulary in the world. Whether it’s ballet, house, hip-hop, salsa, football, basketball, or even walking — if a movement serves the idea, we use it. If it does not, we remove it.
IBDAW is a space for dancers who ask “why?”
For those who do not want to be told what to do, but want to understand what they are doing — and why. It is a playground, not a factory.
We do not train robots. We question, co-create, and translate clear ideas into clear movement.
It’s not about being professional — it’s about being good enough to serve the idea.
While our training begins with personal transformation, it naturally extends to public performance — in shows, theaters, and films. IBDAW dancers do not just train to move better; we train to communicate truthfully across any platform, whether on stage or on screen.
We do not perform dance — We listen, translate, and communicate the idea with the audience.
• What if your dance could become the voice for your ideas and deepest emotions?
• Can stepping out of your comfort zone enhance not just your skills, but also to redefine your dance journey?
• How would it feel to take the stage and create a deep connection with your audience?
• Can the joy of turning the studio into a playground of creativity become your new current routine?
• Danced in DTV or TAF competitions and now craving a fresh team dynamic.
