My first experience with formal dance began at four...with a pink tutu. Since then I
have enjoyed spending time dabbling with a variety of other dance forms including
jazz, ballet and musical theater. However, it wasn't until I saw the expression and
character of middle eastern dance that I was certain I had found my place.


Tribal fusion dance for me is my way of weaving a tale. With skirts and tassles,
gestures and notes, colorful and delicate silk threads are intricately spun and
woven, shimmied and interlaced around a strong musical fabric. Working with Khafif
is an absolute joy as I discover dance and music from all along the Silk Road.


Tribal because we are family, Fusion beacause eclectic is beautiful, and Dance
because it's more than just about the belly.
