ABOUT MORIA:
Morias enigmatic stage presence is born from a history of training in San Francisco bellydance
technique that combines the Salimpour method, stylization from The Indigo, and Fat Chance
posturing. Remembering her mothers early practice of bellydance, her fathers study of yoga, and
from what later became a background of classical dance and theatre in her youth, Moria was moved to
exclusively study bellydance after graduating Magne Cum Laude from the University of California,
Irvine. Inspired by the spirit of bellydance as it allows for the organic and gypsy nature of life
to move serpentine through space, her personal fusion of circus art, theatre make-up, and rich
costuming brings a grace and elegance to tribal bellydance that evokes the majestic. She has
performed music and dance in collaboration with Suhaila and Jamilla Salimpour via Bal Anat and The
Suhaila Dance Company; with Ziah Ali via Awalim; and currently with Rachel Brice and Sharon Kihara
via The Bellydance Superstars. Moria performs and teaches internationally and is well loved within
the bellydance community and beyond.

There will be a variety of merchandise available for purchase at the workshop including apparel,
jewelry, DVDs and CDs.
