Cheers to 24 years, Roxanne and Mike! 🥂 I had a Cheers to 24 years, Roxanne and Mike! 🥂 I had a fabulous time in The Villages dancing for this absolutely amazing couple at their big anniversary party. Roxanne knew all the moves from her Armenian family and her "Heinz 57" crowd followed along like pros when I got them up to dance. So fun! 💃🏻🕺 #bellydance #orlandobellydancer #bellydancerinorlando #thevillages #thevillagesfl #anniversaryparty
I don't always post my warmup but when I do, it's I don't always post my warmup but when I do, it's because I got to my gig an hour early, the wedding was running a little behind, and my "green room" was an entire ceremony room with amazing natural light 💯😍 On that note...I can't wait to see the professional pics from Stephanie and Seyed's beautiful wedding in historic downtown St. Augustine!
Apparently my phone thought it would be cool to ad Apparently my phone thought it would be cool to add some JJ Abrams style lens flares to my post-show pics with the bride and groom 💥💫✨️ So here's a backstage selfie from last night's gig instead...with only minimal lens flare 😅 Congrats and Mabrouk to Andrew and Joy! It was a pleasure bringing some Egyptian flair to your special day 💃🏻 #bellydance #orlandobellydancer #orlandoweddings #floridawedding #egyptianwedding #fusionwedding

Wishing all my Persian friends a blessed and beaut Wishing all my Persian friends a blessed and beautiful Nowruz! 💐🌸✨️ Yesterday I got to ring in the Persian New Year with Neda, her beautiful family and many of her friends from outside the culture who were experiencing a proper Nowruz celebration for the first time. (The money shower during my show was a huge hit for the kids 🤣) I truly love doing my part to keep these important cultural traditions alive for my clients and their families ❤️ Thank you, Neda! #bellydance #orlandobellydancer #bellydancerinorlando #persiannewyear #nowruz #norooz

Variety is the spice of life...and belly dance! 🌶 A great belly dance show should feel like a complete journey with a beginning, a middle and an end, and with some fun twists and turns along the way! There's a lot more to this dance than shaking it like Shakira to fast music for a complete 30-minute set. (If my clients request this type of performance, I'll try to talk them into adding at least one slow or mid-tempo song to mix things up!) Tempo changes, props, audience interaction, and even a little humor are just a few ways to make the performance even more mesmerizing to watch. A skilled professional will give you so much more than just a show, but a beautiful belly dance experience your guests won't forget 💃  Click the link in my bio to book YOUR belly dance entertainment today!  📷: @kelisephotography
