Oryantal Dance (a.k.a Belly Dance)is a dance of isolation, in which the various parts and centers of the body are moved individually, independently from each other, yet end up forming unity.
Born in East Orange, NJ, moved to Richmond, VA at age 3. Joined the USAF in 1974 and left this town vowing never to return. I returned in 1993 and believe me, nothing had changed much....except a bellydance community was added the very year I left. I saw my first bellydance performance in 1981 and I have been hooked ever since. Check-out this wonderful site http://www.shira.net/
