If you haven't heard about the new Zumba craze here is copy taken from the Zumba website (www.zumba.com/index.cfm):

Lets face it, working out can be healthy, rewarding, beneficial… working out can be lots of things, but its never been known to be much fun… UNTIL NOW!

Zumba fuses hypnotic latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic workout system that will blow you away.
Our goal is simple: We want you to want to work out, to love working out, to get hooked. Zumba... read more

I saw online that they ran the article about the function that I danced at on Saturday and I was wondering if my pic was in there. I forgot to get the paper yesterday and you know I won't be able to find it anywhere now. Just curious if anyone else saw it?

about me
I am a professional belly dancer in the northeastern Ohio area. I dance mostly in the American cabaret style, although I appreciate all styles and especially love Egyptian cabaret. My biggest influences in dance are Sohair Zaki, Aziza, Amar Gamal and Amani of Lebanon. I also love Ansuya, but I can't dance like that, even though I've tried. I can't seem to get out of the cabaret dance frame. Anyway, I am booked every weekend for Club Roma at the Mercury Lounge on West 6th, Kan Zaman and Leylenas. I also do many Arabic events, although I must say that lately, Americans are hiring more professional belly dancers- yay! Aside from being a wife and mommy, raqs sharqi is my life and I love and respect the art form deeply. I'm on a personal mission to prove to northeastern Ohio that belly dance is family friendly form of entertainment and a valid art form.
