THE SPIRIT OF A DANCER

To dance, is to free your soul,
To use your body, entire and whole.
Whatever prison your life is in,
However troubled your heart has been,
Move to the music, just let yourself go,
the rhythm is life, thats all you should know.

Thay hace recently acquired a new dancer: Caroline. This lady is astounding, great repertoire, presence and personality.
"I have been dancing for just over 3 years, my first taste of belly dancing was in Agadir, Morocco, they had a lesson by the pool. I heard the music and just had to have a go (Amr Diab) much to my husbands surprise. I started lessons 3 months later back in the UK. Within 4 months I was taking 2 classes a week and had my first visit to Cairo where I had some private lessons with Raqia Hassan. Since then I have visited Cairo 6 times and have had private lessons with Leila, Raqia, Yasmina and Soraya and take lessons at the Ahlan wa Sahlan festival each year.
I perform regularly for weddings, restaurants, theme nights and charity events. I have also performed in Dubai, Istanbul, Marakesh, Greece and the Dominican Republic in 4 and 5 star hotels.
I have almost completed the JWAAD teacher training course and at present teach 3 classes a week with 2 more to begin in september. My husband and 8 children are very supportive, I wouldnt be able to do this without them. I love performing and hopefully my love of the music and dance comes through to my audience."
