about me
Check out my website for myself and The Dalia Carella Dance Collective. I am so proud of it! www.daliacarella.com. You can also check out my DVD's and CD's on my shop site...
I have been in the Near/Middle Eastern Dance Field for over 35 years. Throughout that time I have developed different signature artforms. Some of which are Near Eastern Ethnic Contemporary, Dunyavi Roman (Gypsy) Dance and El Mundo. Lately I am concentrating on Contemporary Expressionistic movements and rituals. I am the artistic director and choreographer for The Dalia Carella Dance Collective based in New York City. My collective and I have just finished our sold out production of "Cabaret Macabre - Theatre du Bizarre et Surrealiste" in October, 2006. We are planning to tour our Ruth St. Denis Show "In Search of a Goddess - Inspirations of the Divine Enchantress Ruth St. Denis and the Cabaret Show during 2007. We are in the process of becomming a 501c3 Corporation so that we can received funding and grants from foundations and corporations that believe in our work both in ethnic and contemporary dance forms. This year I plan to invite and audition different dancers to do works in progress with me and The Collective focusing our ehtnic contemporary rituals from the Near East and North Africa as well as dances in surrealistic movement.

Before you transition from this planet and into the next life, make sure that you do two things:
1) Experience the vibrancy of the wonderful spirit of Dalia Carella when she dances. You will be hypnotized and transformed by the way she engages your soul.
2) Take a class with Dalia. You will never be the same. There is an energy around Ms. Carella
that includes you in the process of learning, you never feel intimidated, only encouraged.
3) Oh, I guess I have another one: Bask in the warmth of her smile!
Dalia, I love you and appreciate all of your gifts and talents. You are an extraordinary and beautiful
woman, never forget that! Be assured that the seeds that you plant are sprouting into beautiful
flowers and strong trees.
Love always,
Cynthia
