"Just wanted to thank you... again for Saturday.  My mom was so surprised and everyone enjoyed the performance so much.  Several people called yesterday to say thanks and that you were the highlight of the evening!   You really helped to make it an extra special evening for my mom and for that  I can’t thank you enough!  Will let you know as soon as I have the pictures..can’t wait!" ~ S.B. xoxoxo

Let me be the life of your next party and host an event that will be remembered for years to come!
Invite the magic and beauty of Orientale dance to your next celebration.

Beautiful, elegant, compelling, magnetic, smooth, powerful, classic, sensuous, nuanced, pretty, and playful--these are some of the words used to describe my dancing. At numerous workshops and shows, master-level dancers have commented on my talent as a performer, including Cassandra, Hadia, Jalilah Zamora, and Suzannah del Vecchio.

I am one of the best dancers in Western Canada. My experience makes me a versatile, adaptable, and accomodating performer. I have danced in restaurants, on numerous stages, in gyms, cabarets, parks, homes, backyards, and poolside on the pavement. I have even taught and danced on a piano bench!

I will:

• set a mood of fun, celebration, warmth, mystery, magic, education -- you ask for it, and I will choose music, dance style, and costuming to help make it happen;
• entertain people of all ages (very family-friendly - kids love it!);
• work within your special theme, such as Mardi Gras, Arabian Nights, Goddesses, Hallowe'en;
• add life and sparkle;
• create happy, fun memories;
• help relax your guests and get them smiling.

I have performed at:

• Weddings (including my own),
• Fundraisers (formal galas to casual),
• Retirement parties,
• Birthdays -- all ages,
• Bridal showers/gatherings,
• Christmas and New Year's parties,
• Hallowe'en parties,
• International Women's Day parties,
• Bachelorettes (yes!),
• Wellness expos,
• Multicultural events,
• Wedding socials,
• Business promotions, and
• Learning Lunches,
• Mom's Night Out events.

Bellydance is great for:

• restaurant theme nights/openings,
• block parties,
• festivals,
• arts events, gallery/installation openings,
• family reunions,
• pre- or post-wedding parties (when folks need to relax and have some fun),
• mom's night out groups,
• dinner parties,
• baby showers,
• blessing ways ,
• Valentine's/anniversary surprise for your spouse (with some restrictions),
• staff/volunteer/caregiver wellness sessions and retreats,
• workplace parties/special events, and
• Red Hat gatherings.

Combine a lesson and performance to get your family, friends, staff or co-workers trying something new and fun, and then sit back to enjoy a show!

(Sorry, no singing bellygrams or all-male private events such as bachelor parties. If you want to treat a groom-to-be and your male friends, I will consider dancing in a public place, such as a restaurant. Please contact me for more details at 204-957-7520.)

I am also available for television and film work, including choreography.
