Cabaret or Tribal? Suhaila Speaks

We are starting our Old School Bellydance series again in August, and I was recently asked what makes it “old school”–basically what is the class about? We base our Old School classes on the root form of tribal bellydance, which … Read More

(This article was also tweaked and posted to NWBellydance.com) We tribal dancers are well known for our ongoing debates about what is and is not tribal, but beyond that we debate the minutiae of what sub-set of tribal best defines … Read More

Student Reviews

I cannot say enough good things about Shay Moore and her classes – I have been studying tribal fusion bellydance with Shay for over 5 years and it is hands-down one the most fun and enriching experiences I have been involved with.  Shay is an excellent teacher – her style is warm, supportive, encouraging and playful, and she strives to break things down in a way that everyone can… Read More

NO FEAR! I’m finding Shay’s class remarkable in the sense that I don’t feel scared or dumb…even though I’m really new at this tribal thing.  The class is challenging, but she presents the curriculum in such a way that I don’t feel nervous or overwhelmed. Beyond dance, she’s actually teaching dance theory, and I feel myself getting grounded in the movements and vocabulary as time goes on.  Highly recommended,… Read More

The instructor, Shay, is very knowledgeable, positive and welcoming. She made it a great experience for students of all shapes, sizes and ability levels. Glad I learned about this great place with such a fantastic Living Social deal. Read More

Before finding Deep Roots, I tried belly dancing with a few different teachers and studios. My first experience in belly dancing left me mostly uninspired to move forward with the art form. A few years later I decided to pick it up again and while that teacher was a beautiful dancer, she didn’t actually give instruction on how you could become a beautiful dancer. Staring at yourself in a mirror… Read More

I studied Tribal Fusion bellydance with Frederique in Oakland before moving to Seattle, and I was desperately missing getting my shimmy on. I’ll be honest, I first took Shay’s class at the Phinney Neighborhood Center because it was close to my house and she answered my email, but boy howdy did I get lucky. Shay is a great dancer, but what is more important to this review is that she is… Read More
