My Testimonials

May 14, 2008
I testify that Marisa is fabu!

I'm happy that you are in my life and I thank you for inspiring and teaching me.


By the way, I showed my Chouchou the 'Inspired' invitation and asked him to tell me which one is my instructor... he chose you and said... 'she's very you' -- totally!

See you next Tuesday! It's a date!!

Ciao Bella,

Marisa's heart is just as big as her smile and just as true too!! Marisa is one of the most honestly open-hearted, kind, and caring people I have ever met! She is compassionate, thoughtful, and awe-inspiring. Marisa's energy is clear and focused, and is one the most motivating soul's I have had the pleasure of sharing my goals and aspirations with. I feel truly honored to have made her acquaintance and only hope that I can influence her life a fraction of what she has influenced mine. I hope our friendship continues to grow and her teaching never ceases. May everyday bloom with joy for you.
Peace, love, and blessings, your friend, Rachel Jade Walmsley

I have watched Marisa grow as a young woman and a dancer and has taken hold of the stars and just keeps swingin'. She has honored me by allowing me to be in the "front row" of her achievements and I wouldn't want to sit anywhere else. I adore her passion, the way in which she gets lost in the music as well as the dance and the way in which she always makes me feel so special. I am so proud of you and so grateful to still be in the front row! I love you! Mama Shiva

Marisa Is not only a talented and dedicated Bellydancer, but a lovely and loyal friend! I love you Girl! Wish you the best always and have your back through thick and thin.
ps I forgot to mention that she is also a kickass dance partner, roommate, and twin! Not such a good cook though....eh ehhhemmm, although she does make good nachos and mixed drinks!

I'm selling an orange costume. complete, it comes with bra, skirt, veil and cuffs. i purchased it for over $600 but only performed in it 3 times and wore it for a photo shoot, so it's nearly brand new. im selling it because i have too much booty for it to fit me comfortably. dimensions:
bra: up to 36 A/B. Hooks currently at 31''
top of skirt: 34''
low hip (4 inches below top of skirt): 36''
skirt length: 40''
I'd love to get $400 for it, but I'll take the best offer. At this point I'd really just like the space in my closet. : )
