I believe in taking classes from various teachers because everyone has their own interpretation and something new to offer to the dance.Two dancers really stand out in my dance history: Clare Smith and Shahzaadee. They are not only beautiful dancers but wonderful friends. I love them!
Clare Smith
I took my first bellydance class with Clare Smith back in November of 2002, just 8 weeks after having my son. She is a wonderful teacher, performer, and friend. She has been such an inspiration and really helps mentor her students so that they can develop their own style of dance. I am so thankful to Clare for introducing me to bellydance.
Shahzaadee
I took my first classes with Shahzaadee in November of 2006. After which she invited me to dance with the Colorful Waves Bellydance Troupe. Shahzaadee is an incredible dancer– one of the best! She is creative and expressive, and her personality shines when she dances.
