She is one of my favorite dancers and we all had great fun with her today! She taught us a fabulous Oriental Choreography to a song called ‘Makally We Koltelo’, which sounds just like ‘Leyla’, with some added variations. It is off a CD called Issam Houshan and the Damascus Bellydance Orchestra. The choreography she taught was just under 5 minutes and we did it in 4 hours. With alot of sweat, water, and dedication, we made it through. She is an amazing dance artist and her personality is equally amazing. I highly recommend anyone who hasn’t already done so, to study with here. It is a great choreography that was actually choreographed for the Bellydance Superstars.

I am so excited about this new project I started recently. I went to the auditions back in January and taught a mini bellydance lesson to all the cast members that came out. (FUN!) So now the fun begins! The cast has been selected and their grueling rehearsals have begun. I have alot of respect for people dedicated to the arts. (I was in several plays in HS) and it is hard work. Andrew and Naji Hilal are working collaboratively on this project as well. They are producing the music and teaching some of the cast how to play various instruments to perform while on stage. I went last week to start lessons and the whole cast was their learning, even the guys! They were great too! I am teaching choreography for a couple dance pieces and am so excited about this new project.

Check it out!
