about me
I started bellydancing with a class over 3 years ago now. I had some tap/jazz/ballet training in my youth, along with some cheer leading (no, I don't know WHAT I was thinking with that decision), and much instrumental training. I focused more on the private flute lessons through high school and college, adding recorder with the Collegium Musicum at U of D. I even played some Indonesian instruments with the Gamelan, when it still was at U of D (and I still want to bang on the gong all day). But I missed my dance, and got hooked again when I visited Casablanca in DE and saw Maya dance. I didn't start classes for another few years. Should have started earlier, but hind sight = 20/20 and all, I'll just enjoy what I can. Not sure I would even want to dance in a traditional restaurant setting, but I'd love to get involved with Renaissance festivals and drum circles. I also sew many of my own costumes, and may get into sewing more for others. In "real life", I've got 2 degrees in Math and just finished one in statistics.

My Testimonials

March 21, 2008
Lorelei,

Thanks for making Delaware Belly Dance Festival a huge success. You are such a wonderful person and it's my pleasure to get to know you. The Sherezade play was great and I am working now on next year's Festival. Thanks so much.

Lorelei started in the Audience and danced her way onto the stage. Dancing to Lebanese music and playing zills. She had nice pauses with the music. Dressed in a lovely purple traditional outfit.
