With Stars Upon Thars!

About Me

Sneetch Productions (Mihrimah) presents the amazing dark beauties (drum roll please)

THE BELLY STARS!!!


Ta Da! We are Tahmina, Khalida, Tahara, Dara, and Mihrimah.
Cyrus and Aviva are special guest performers along with our baby bellystars (our kiddos)! We have found our new drummer - Jah-Anmehr!
Musicians of all ilks are welcome to join with us!
Here are some of the pix from Wicked Faire!
We perform Fusion and Gothic Belly Dance. Raks Gothique is a relatively new dance form and the Belly Stars Dance Troupe is on the leading edge! Our fusion influences include tribal, cabaret, folk, gypsy, latin, and modern dance. Our dance repetoire includes everything from trance and alternative rock to Egyptian, Turkish, and North African movement.
Keep watching this site for updates to see where our troupe or members are performing or teaching...
