Dance, music, family and friends are my life. I miss one or the other when I'm consumed by one or the other.... I've got to have a lot of each to be happy. My passions are live music performance and traveling abroad.Currently, I teach most night of the week and perform most every weekend. I'm also studying mandolin and have been a singer all my life (which lends quite nicely to the dancing!).I've spent the last few years honing my skills as a performer and instructor. One of my greatest pleasures is seeing students/peers have that "I get it" moment. Throughout 15 of studying belly dance, I've been honored to receive a few prestigious awards along the way~ 2006 Double Crown Performing Artist, 2007 Belly Dancer of the Universe (+ 1st runner-up Fusion soloist), and 2008 Folkloric Grand Champion from the International Belly Dance Convention in Las Vegas.My biggest inspirations are Leila (one of my troupe mates from years past who's now a famous dancer in Cairo)- www.LeilainEgypt.com, and UNMATA, a now famous troupe out of Sacramento who never fail to "wow" me when I see them perform. UNMATA is the antithesis of what I do with belly dance, and so, I secretly want to be them! - www.unmata.com I host each of these performers in Seattle annually, so keep an eye on my events if you're interested.You can see my website at: www.DahliaDance.com
Which Egyptian God or Goddess do you represent?
Ma'at, Goddess of Order, Harmony, and Truth
Ma'at was the goddess of physical and moral law in Egypt, of order and truth. She was not much of a goddess, but more of a concept. She was what was right; she was the way things should be. You lead a very well-ordered life. You are just and keep things in balance. You know just how to react to things, and people like you for that.
