Okay, we know this lady can tear up a dance floor, but you should also be aware that she is a great person who makes some mean cookies!

You know it is all well, fine and good to talk about this woman’s super hotness, her incredible sweetness and her radiant dancing… but really guys, we’ve been there and done that. It is time to praise the virtue that has gone ignored for too long and should be sung from heralds up on high…this woman makes the best cookies ever!!! :)

A Very Lovely Lady, a Beautiful Dancer, Truly a Class Act, that`s Samira Shuruk :-)

Yeah, what they said.

You are *the* cool chick who talks to the dorky clarinet player.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for dancing to my music!

I have drummed in many a circle and for many extraordinary belly dancers of both sexes! I've seen passion and devotion of the art of raqs sharqi eminate through the pours of some dancers; Yet you, in the two years I have watched you dance, portray this uncanny elegance and grace that the goddesses themselves could not surpass nor impersonate. The seduction of your dance is mostly caught in your eyes. And the only thing which surpasses your grace is your divine heart. It's a pleasure to drum for you in the short time that I have and I shall continue to do my best to keep all the dancers full of joy and celebration!

So, Facebook for me does not have the same nice "conversational features" that tribe has. For group discussions I far prefer tribe. But Facebook does have some nice features.
A bunch of people suggested I create a fan page over there- so I did this morning. It's already growing!
If you're on Facebook- please join me. It's where I'll post new pictures, updates etc... and occasional random things. My dance blog will remain here of course, on tribe.

This is inspired by 1) a fabulous weekend and 2) a recent Bhuz thread.
So often we see threads asking for help advice on dealing with gig difficulties or simply venting about a dreadful gig experience. Sharing the positive one is just as important, I think.
I've officially decided I love the weekend after Thanksgiving. It's official. It's rocks.
The American audience dinner time show scheduled for Friday was canceled- Americans must have been home eating leftovers. That was FINE. :... read more
