| I love bellydance because it can be expressed by so many different people. Bellydance cannot be confined in one type of body, nor one type of music. My passion is to bring this beautiful and entertaining art form to as many people as possible. I would be delighted to perform at your next hafla, festival, variety show, office party, or wedding. I have a plethora of costumes in many styles of bellydance-and can perform many different styles of bellydance-perfect for accommodating your specific requests. Please feel free to contact me with any specific requests and for rates. |

| 2010 Intensive with Bastet |
Tick, Tick…Boom!
Take your isolations to the next level! Learn tried-and-true
technique for tiny isolations that are great for everyone from the
Suhaila –enthusiast, to the fusion pop-n-locker, to the beginning
dancer, and where to put those “wow” moves for maximum effect.
Learn combos filled with Egyptian, Cabaret, Tribal Fusion, ATS
postures/movement, liquid and waving, and popping, locking, and
strobing (as seen in modern Chinese dance and breakdance). (2- 4
hrs)
Travel in Style
Experience Level: Beginning-Advanced
Move it! Work the entire stage and/or performance space using
both classic moves and Bastet’s signature travelling moves. Use
spins, Arabic’s, shimmies, grapevine variations, and fancy footwork
in ½, ¼, ¾, and full timing to move gracefully and meaningfully
around the stage. Travelling moves aren’t just for getting from one
place to another anymore…travel in style! (1-4 hrs)

Double Fan Fusion (Level 1, Level
2, Level 3*, or Multi-Level)
Learn to wield double fans from the “Fan Goddess” herself! Learn
Bastet’s whole-body technique of fan dancing, using the fans as an
extension of your fingers. This workshop can be modified to fit multiple
levels of fan dance, from basic technique and fan combos (Level 1) to
progressively more challenging double fan choreographies (Level 2 and 3).
Due to Bastet’s eclectic training and personal style, this workshop can also
be taught to a variety of dance styles, from Egyptian Cabaret to Tribal
Fusion to Vaudeville fusion and everything in between. Double Fan Fusion
may also be taught as part of a weekend intensive, starting with Level
1/Multi-level on the first day and proceeding to Level 2 on the second day.
(2-4 hrs)
*Level 3 is recommended only for those participants who have taken Level
2 as it will involve more advanced fan and bellydance technique.
Gypsy Punk!
Experience Level: Experienced beginner-advanced
Give your audience a blow to the head and a kick in the teeth! Fast-
paced, grinding, gypsy-infused punk music brings out the belligerence in all
of us! Learn a theatrical choreography complete with over-the-top acting
and can-can kicks, mixed with folkloric dance. Get your steel-toed boots
ready. This will be a work-out. (2 hrs)
