How did you hear about this group? Craigslist, google, friend, other?

Through friends

Tell us more about yourself or interests please.

I grew up in Istanbul where Belly Dance and music is part of the culture, but never knew, up until i started studying it, how difficult it was to master the technique! I had a career switch from marketing to professional performer, and never been happier, and healthier..

Are you a Beginner or How long have you been dancing?

I have been a Professional Belly Dancer and teacher for about 6 years. I grew up studying classic ballet as a child, and later on in my life tried other dance styles, and finally found my passion in Belly Dance.

Belly Dancing, any type of dancing, music, arts, books, writing
