She who understands the deeper meaning of the word erotic (as the sum of all instincts of self preservation) 7. Loves music. Loves the moon. Loves drama. Loves freedom. Loves to shimmy and shake. Loves herself.

Stop being holy, forget being prudent,
It'll be a hundred times better for everyone.
Stop being altruistic, forget being righteous,
people will remember what family feeling is.
Stop planning, forget making a profit,
there won't be any thieves and robbers.
But even these three rules
Needn't be followed, what works reliably
is to know the raw silk,
hold the uncut wood.
Need little,
want less.
Forget the rules.
Be untroubled.

"Embodied theory, as feminist figurations in time and space, alters the character of knowledge through its refusal to distance thinking from moving, knowing from being, thought from material specificity of bodies. Such a perspective demands that theorizing operate on a multi-discursive register of subjectivity and recognize nonhegemonic modes of discourse as valid representations of women's agency."
---Carol Brown "Dancing Between Hemispheres: Negotiating Routes for the Dancer Academic"

Kandi is continually expanding the definition of "modern bellydance" and is making incredible strides for this art form. I am deeply indebted to her, as I feel like my vision for what bellydancing is has expanded leaps and bounds from where it was before. She has her own unique style that is so clearly the "essence of Kandi," and you can tell that this woman is one of the very few people in this world that you can call a true artist.
As a teacher, Kandi is patient, funny, and clear in her direction. She genuinely wants her students to get better and forces us to take our own talents to the highest level possible. I am incredibly lucky to dance alongside you, Kandi, and I will never forget what you have done for me.
If you're anywhere in the mid-Missouri area, take lessons with this woman! You will not regret it!

Every essence from this woman is a mixture of allure, mystery, confidence, more mystery, brains, innovation, and then even more mystery, and a whole lot of kick ass goddess chic. I luv sharing new ideas and inspirations with her because she will get just excited and/or not be afraid to laugh at me a little. But don't let her fool you..... excitement can make her shriek just as loud as I. Hahahaha oh yea, and without Kandi as my teacher I would not be nearly as kick ass of a dancer today! Did I mention how much this chic rocks?!?!?!?!?!

My dear friend....a lifelong reminder of my beauty because of your beauty.
What it may lend meaning to, I would fit this thought into the cup of your hand, gentle astride.
2 geese soft and fleeting slowly.
If it might lift us above suburbia into the La Rambla calling for more.
If it might keep us here... soft breeze filters through windows as creative energy moves us like sails.
You are my rock and also my motivation for flight.
you continue to move me to tears of pride and flood me with authenticity year after year into years.
you are the family that I come home to.
a muse, teacher, and shining example of life well lived.
