              Leslie of Raqs Serpentine ~  Leslie's imagination was captured by bellydance in 1995 and she hasn't been able to escape yet!  She creates a warm, fun, community enviornment that is a wonderful blend of both the silly and sacred.  Her lifelong passion for the circus led her to fire performance in 2001.  She was honored with the opportunity to perform for the cast of Cirque du Soleil at the end of the tour party for Vareki summer of 2005. 

             UNMATA ~ UNMATA's high-energy brand of dance has packed the house and electrified audiences at venues of all sizes.  Whether using fire, swords, or just the sweat off their own bodies, UNMATA always satisfies!  Need we say more?

             Dahlia  ~ Get the how-to's for some of the most popular and impressive Egyptian style hip movments from multi-award winning dancer, Dahlia.  Utilizing both modern and folkloric styling, she'll start with the basics then burn her way t hrough advanced techniques.  Have you ever wondered what the jewel is? Or the difference between Ghawazee and Hagalla 3/4 shimmies?  Get them all securely fastened under your belt in this highly valuable workshop for all belly dance styles!

             Tribalation ~ Smoldering tribal improv!  Combos and tecniques for those sexy, squishy medium tempo songs ! Learn Triblation favorites like the T&A and the sexy swerve n' sway.  All levels, but some previous improvisational tribal style dance exposure is recommended.

             Susan ~  Susan has been bellydancing since age 5.  She is a 2nd generation teacher, coach, performer, competition judge and event sponsor for alexander Greek cuisine first Saturday of each month in Roseburg, Oregon.  She has a fun teaching technique with s himmies and drum solos.  Her workshop will also have a warm up and cool down along with handouts to take home.  Dancers will sweats their butts off!  Taught to Paradise City by Guns-n-Roses!

             ZePhyr ~  Come hang with the silly girls of Zephyr as they warm you up with isolation exercises and dizzying shimmy overlays.  They will then take you into the land of Zephyr vocab with the teaching of their funny named improv moves and 'good times to be had attitude ' as you sweat and move your way through the final workshop of the weekend ~
