about me
I am a belly dance performer and instructor in Central PA. I am a lover of all types of percussion especially finger cymbals, djembes, and dumbeks. I also co-own an Austrian restaurant.
I just got back from a fantastic weekend workshop with Hadia. I had studied with her for about a year and a half but now I remember what I adore about her classes i.e. I feel better when I leave than when I arrive (even after 5 hours of dancing).

Finally, after 2 chiropractic visits, herbal and vitamin remedies and a weekend studying with Hadia, I am pain free.

I figure, if I can stay focused and keep training, I can/will be ready for Level 2 in New Jersey in July. I must say, it does feel good to have a direction and a goal. I have definitely been feeling stuck lately. It'...

I have always been a fan of Suhaila's format. As a beginning student, my teacher Tammie used a lot of Suhaila's technique in class. It seemed only logical to continue studying her format when her certification program started-up. Four years ago, I attended a level 1 workshop and got my level 1 certification. I was so proud (still am). After that, I had plans to go higher. I really practiced my squats, bun squeezes, and techniques and one year later attended the first level 2 weeklong. ...
