Spent my Saturday night doing two of my favorite t Spent my Saturday night doing two of my favorite things: dancing at a wedding and being near the ocean ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿ’ I had such a blast performing at Dominique and Connor's gorgeous coastal wedding at @tampabaywatch in Tierra Verde! I bonded immediately with the bride's family when Dominique's mom Ingrid reached out and I saw her (203) area code from my Mother Land (Connecticut) ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ and together we created a very special Latin Fusion playlist to honor Dominique's Latin and Arab roots. (With plenty of inspiration from my recent ventures into Latin belly dance fusion with @angelbellydance ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿผ). It was such an honor to make dance floor magic with this beautiful group! Congrats, you two! ๐Ÿฅ‚ Wishing you a happy Ever After! And thank you Ingrid for trusting me with Dominique's special day ๐Ÿค  Planner: @ariaeventsinc_florida

THIS post has been a long time in the making, and THIS post has been a long time in the making, and it's a long one...so cheers to you if you make it to the end ๐Ÿ˜Ž  Things have been feeling pretty "heavy" for a lot of us in the belly dance community these days...especially those of us who have been dancing long enough to have witnessed a vibe shift in the industry and the world. I'm posting this to see if this resonates with anyone else in the dance community...and how we can shift the vibes back in the right direction. We can't alter the course of current events, but we CAN focus on the things within our control like how we show up for our own local communities and what we do with our unique skills โค๏ธ  More on these topics to come. Thank you @chantaldancelife for giving me the original inspiration behind this post. Dance may be glamorous entertainment, but we could all stand to pull back the curtain every once in awhile and reveal the REALITY of the business โค๏ธ  Dancers and artists, what's been weighing on your mind?
Every once in awhile, I actually get to spend my S Every once in awhile, I actually get to spend my Saturday LEARNING dance instead of being busy performing ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ I had a wonderful time today learning retro Egyptian techniques with the coolest Canadian dancer @melissa.gamal โค๏ธ We did a deep dive on the iconic stylings of Fifi Abdo, Soheir Zaki and Najwa Fouad and then did some sassy 80's sha'abi ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป I've always been partial to Golden Age and vintage dance styles and this class gave me so many techniques to help me master those old-school steps and vibes I love so much ๐Ÿ˜ Thank you @zizidances for hosting. Can't wait to do it again!
We used to post the most random and often unhinged We used to post the most random and often unhinged stuff on our business accounts because it showed clients that we were real, relatable and fun. (After all, personality IS everything when hiring live entertainment, and I'm much more of a glitter gremlin than a cool girl influencer personality type ๐Ÿ’…๐Ÿผ). Now we're all afraid to post because we don't have Spielberg in our corner at every event. Even if we did hire an Oscar-winning production crew, the algorithm still wouldn't show our content to anyone if it didn't pass the ever-changing and often mind-numbing criteria for a viral post. (Spoiler alert: it probably involves rage bait, lip syncing, AI, thirst traps, or all of the above). At the end of the day, when you buy from an artist or a small business owner, you're doing business with a HUMAN and our humanity will never change, no matter how much technology evolves and asks us to evolve with it. At what point do we reject this modern-day humiliation ritual and bring back the glory days of 2017-style sh๐Ÿ’ฉt-posting? I truly miss the days when it was cool to be ourselves and we weren't expected to conform to the same boring, cookie-cutter standards forced on us by influencers and AI. We may have been cringe by today's standards, but we were also free ๐Ÿฆ‹โœจ
May is off to a great start! ๐Ÿ˜ My first event of t May is off to a great start! ๐Ÿ˜ My first event of the month was a gorgeous graduation party for the sweetest Lebanese family in Kissimmee ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ You can always count on  nonstop energy and immaculate dance floor vibes when working with a Lebanese crowd, and this group did not disappoint! My audience brought their A-game from beginning to end with all their best moves and enough zaghroutas to give Sabrina Carpenter an aneurysm...iykyk ๐Ÿคฃ I also got to debut a brand-new gold costume from @damuse_bellydancecostume โœจ Thank you Dareen for making me part of your sister's special day and I hope to see your family again soon!
