We are the Desert Communities chapter of MECDA--Middle Eastern Cultural and Dance Association. Located in the Antelope Valley in Southern California, we are dedicated to promoting Middle Eastern dance, commonly known as Belly Dance.
We produce belly dance events like Dance in the Desert, where dancers from all over converge to perform, shop, take workshops, and just spend time gabbing. At the event we also collect items for the local domestic abuse refuge--clean and useful clothing, new toiletries and make up, etc.
Twice a year we sponsor dance workshops with some of the very best teachers California has to offer (and that's a LOT!) to promote dance education. We've hosted teachers such as Zahra Zuhair, Kamaal, Jim Boz, Aziza Said, and Princess Farhana, just to name a few.
