Winter Holiday Showcase 2025!

On Monday night we had our annual Adult Holiday Showcase at Better Together Dance Theatre. This is always a special night where our adult dancers perform for each other and cheer each other on! The fun, festive and supportive event is the perfect way to celebrate a great year of dance.

Belly Dance Class Update!

My Intermediate class in Belmont chose to focus on zills this term and they have made such fantastic progress. They sound amazing. Here is a sneak peak of a routine they will be performing next week in our annual Better Together Adult Holiday Dance Showcase:

Dina (دينا)

Hello friends,

Tonight in class we are going to start working on a different kind of song. We’ve been working mainly with classic pieces over the last few months, and tonight we’ll move onto a Shaabi style song.

I had planned to have an explanation for you all about Shaabi music but, like everyone else, I have been overwhelmed by current events. I will get one together for next week.

In the meantime, I thought we could at least enjoy some Dina (دينا). Dina is the most important and influential Egyptian belly dancer of the modern era. Below are two clips of her dancing to the same song because it’s fun to see how she dances in the movie clip compared to how she dances to it at a party with a live audience.

Also - I LOVE her silver dress!

I hope you enjoyed those.

My belly dance classes continue online through the South San Francisco Parks and Rec through the end of June. I am not sure what is happening after that but I will keep everyone posted as soon as I know.

In the meantime, it is not too late to join us for this online session. The South San Francisco Parks and Rec Department have made these classes available to the public for free, but you do need to preregister at their online catalog so they can send you a secure invitation to join. Enter code SP1-471 in the box under ‘Filter’ and our class will come up - it’s called ‘Virtual-Belly Dancing’.

You can always contact me with any questions!
