Belly Dance! Here we are- professional belly dancers, students, teachers, drummers, musicians and friends in Maryland and surrounding areas! Meet fellow Bellydancers near you! Come to a local Bellydancing Meetup to share the joy of belly dancing (Raqs Sharqi or Dance Oriental if you prefer). Our calendar is the best feature- see where classes are, post your own events? fill out the polls to help teachers plan.
Learn about costumes and veils, shows, dancers, styles and more!
Those interested in Middle Eastern Music are welcome, too. We have jam sessions.
Link your website on your profile page!
If you are looking for Maryland belly dance classes, you'll find them here, or ask on our message board.
Come out and meet a huge group of bellydancers at the monthly show: The All Seasons Hafla at theKichen of India. Eat a delicious Indian Buffet and watch the professional and amateur dancers- we cheer for them all. It's a great place to meet local teachers and students, too. November 1st, the All Seasons hafla will feature Amustela, and many other fabulous acts!
