Bellydance rubbernecking…

by Shay | posted in: ethics, fusion, musings | 13

Student Reviews

Many of us attended your workshop, and took more than dance technique away. Your open and inviting attitude towards dance has become an essential part of our philosophy of dance. It is a wonderful gift that we will never be able to thank you enough. Read More

Your love of the dance is abundantly evident.  With much… Read More

The class is challenging, but she presents the curriculum in such a way that I don’t feel nervous or overwhelmed. She is so comfortable in the teaching role that she helps me to be comfortable as her student, and in fact, I feel excited about learning whatever she wants to teach. Read More
