Introduction

Performer, teacher, and choreographer, I have studied classic ballet, modern ballet, and belly dancing since childhood (in my hometown Istanbul, and in New York), and I'm dedicated to the beautiful art of belly dancing.

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.

What dance topics interest you most?

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

Why did you join this group? Members are required to display a personal photo of themselves in order to build community within our group. Have you uploaded a photo?

I joined this group to stay in touch with the Bellydance community; network, share interests, ideas, etc

Thanks for the welcome, Birnur! It's hard finding a belly dance class in the Central Jersey area that is available weeknights. I hope to learn sometime soon. Talk to you later.
