A recent from a lovely client.
"I booked her for my daughter’s Bridal Shower and she was AMAZING and we had sooo much fun!! Her dancing is beautiful, our guests got up and danced. She is warm, inviting and can get the party going. Her Henna art is beautiful as well! I will recommend her services to anyone that is interested in this type of interactive entertainment! It was the chef’s kiss to the party, my guests raved about the experience and how much fun they had!!! Definitely a memorable experience!".

It was a clear night. The sky was full of stars. The people were dressed in Arabian costumes at a party in Atascadero. The pool was shimmering with purple and pink lights. After dinner and dessert, the guests settled on comfy pillows by the pool. Time seemed to just disappear and I danced for an hour. They all danced with me and the energy was great. At the end of my show, the men and women jumped in the pool with their arabian costumes ON 😀 It was a good night.

Entrance onto the dance floor. Shortly after, the dance floor was packed with most of the guests dancing. I felt glad that I got to interact and dance with a lot of the guests. I enjoy engaging with the audience. This wedding was especially enjoyable because some of the guests spoke Spanish, and some spoke Arabic, so I got to speak and practice those languages that I enjoy so much.

My latest costume design for event was inspired by my henna designs. I try to recreate, reuse, and redesign existing costumes. Shopping is not my thing, and I avoid buying new costumes/clothes as part of my minimalist philosophy. Reusing and redesigning makes me creative and happy.
Also, class every Tue 930am. Free for all. Contact to register to dance with me on zoom.

Happy Eid Al-Adha. EID is a celebration with good food, henna, family, friends and new clothes of course. I received these new costumes from my family in the Middle East. Just look at how much work goes into these hand embroidered designs.

Dear friends, this week I'll be dancing in Paso Robles on Wed evening and Cambria on Sat. Both events are free to attend and open to the public. Events details posted on my site joyfulbellydance.com
These are educational programs about Middle Eastern and Pakistani dance and culture.
In this pic, I'm ready for my gig yesterday. It was my first Jewish party. The party was big and outdoors. The people were so nice and loved dancing. I was happy to hear people speaking Hebrew as I love languages.I saw the biggest dog 🐕 it weighed more than me, and they had a humming bird egg next to an ostrich egg 🥚 which was amazing. I was happy dancing 💃 in nature, and the hosts were very kind and generous.

"This was such a wonderful experience. She is beautiful inside and out, beyond talented. Interacts with her audience in a way that would make the most shy want to interact with her. Never have I seen my husband so happy! Beautifully danced. Her talent goes beyond her dance in the way that she interacts with her audience."

A wonderful review from a lovely client who hired me to provide bellydance entertainment for her husband's birthday party.

In this video I'm dancing while the sole of my shoe detached. But I kept dancing. People were happy and I was enjoying the moment. The table was shaking from people enjoying the show. Looking forward to more events coming up. Today I'll be in Arroyo Grande library for a henna session at 2pm. Register at slolibrary.org
