Our classes are generally held from 10:30 to 14:30 on any given day that we have enough participants. We prepare 5 typical Turkish dishes in a group of 6-10 persons and then have them for lunch in our restaurant. We have aprons at your disposal and you will get the recipes to take with you.

Private classes are held as well.

For private groups, evening classes can be considered as well, starting at 16:30, with dinner served from 19:00 to 21:00

“ON STRIKE”  This exhibition does not correspond to any serious, complicated artistic manifest. The paintings and sculptures do not attempt to make any significant contribution in terms of form and content to the spectators’ daily lives. The works in this exhibition resulted from a productive process that promotes entertaining rather than exhibiting. Read the whole story

GÖÇEBE ŞARKILAR IS STARTING TO PERFORM IN BEYOGLU, CLOSE UP

Göçebe Şarkılar

Göçebe Şarkılar (The Nomadic Songs) take their listeners on a trip into the sounds of the people who spend their lives migrating from landscape to landscape, not always by choice. Their songs reflect the lives, loves, joys and sorrows of those cultures.

Göçebe Şarkılar draw on a repertoire of songs from Romania, Hungary, old Yugoslavian gipsy lands, Macedonia, Albania , Bosnia-Herzegovina, Greece, Andalucía, Mexico, Italy, Anatolia, Armenia and Thrace as well as from Sephardic culture. They interpret these pieces in their authentic languages with the accompaniment of guitar, violins, accordion, and percussion; thriving to present the listener with a dynamic and different aural experience at each concert.

Let’s embark together on this journey of song, dance, happiness and melancholy…

GÖÇEBE ŞARKILAR:

Ahmet Tirgil - violin

Ayça Damgacı - vocal

Hakan Milli - vocal İnci Sunar - guitar

Levent Güzel - percussion Özge Metin - violin, accordeon

Dj Can at Barbahce on every Saturday night

Some of our guests who stay in our  gay friendly Istanbul apartments sometimes ask me for a recommendation for a good gay bar in Taksim area. I don’t know which one is recently better than the other but I know that it is always very fun and lively when my friend, Dj Can plays in a venue…Nowadays he is a resident Dj at Barbahce on every Saturday night and Barbahce is very close to some of  our  apartments in Cihangir area.

DANSEVİ, Dance Studio

Dansevi

I have been taking aero-stretching courses from Ms. Ayse Sun since 1997. She also teaches classical ballet, which is actually her own field, both to children and adults.

Our aero-stretching classes are composed of set movements from yoga, aerobics and stretching that she designs and we come together every Monday and Wednesday at 20:00, Friday at 18:00 at her own studio in Mis St., No:12, Floor:4, Beyoglu.

I strongly recommend her classes to my guests who are here in Istanbul for a short while and want to do some physical training even it is for a couple of times…

You may contact her e-mail address  ayseaygor@hotmail.com for more info in Turkish or mine info@istanbulsweethome.com in English.
