Mm Mm Monday – Nana Candelaria, Rachel Brice’s Roots

by Shay | posted in: MmMmMonday | 0

Here at Deep Roots Dance, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out we value the roots from which we all came. Nobody sprung fully formed from Zeus’ forehead (though I joke to my students all the time that I … Read More

We had so many people tell us how much they enjoyed your workshops as well as all of us (troupe members) having a great time and being in awe of your teaching skills and funness (I know, I am making up words all over the place today…must be in the tea I’m drinking),so we just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated you coming to teach, and we hope to do it again in the future.

Tribal instruction at it’s finest! Shay has a true gift for teaching, and a true gift for tribal bellydance…put the two together and a magical class is born!  Her style is very warm and welcoming, and her instruction very clear and precise.  She is a wonderful teacher that I recommend highly to anyone interested in dipping their toes in tribal improv!

I used to drive from Olympia to take Sharon’s class every Monday. Unfortunately my schedule conflicts with her classes now, but the drive is oh-so-worth it. Sharon is an exceptional and generous teacher. She means business, but she also makes the class fun, creating a very supportive environment.  I so wish I could go back! Read More
