Inspirations
When I took my first belly dance class in 1995 at Georgia State University, I began a love affair with an art form that has allowed me to enrich my life in ways I never imagined. I have met so many wonderful people over the years and have had the pleasure of studying with wonderful teachers. Nadia Gamal made one of the biggest impacts on me when I started studying video footage from dancers “over there”. Her personality and commanding stage presence together with fantastic musical interpretation – wow! Sadly, she left us before I could see her in person.
