I haven't updated this site in a while, but have been busy learning new things and working on developing my own personal style and performance. Below is a clip from a more recent performance. It's about a year from my first performance and you'll probably notice I look far less scared, a little smoother and a lot more expressive. I still need to work on a few things, but I'd say it's a world of difference.

And hey, this is now on YouTube. I'm feeling pretty good that I made it this far!

Valentina took more pictures of me at a show I did one night at Al Masri (it's on Flickr.). And yeah, I'm smiling more and actually having a good time on the stage. Go figure :)

I danced again in early December at yet another Al Masri recital. A fellow student, Valentina, tooks these pictures (thanks, Valentina!). Take a peek at Flickr.
Oh yes, the napkin in the side of my outfit was a prop for the dance I was doing. When I get a video up you'll see what I mean. Also I have a new trademark look and it's the crystal barrette in my hair. I thought it was kinda cute, keeps my hair out of my face (my friend Valentina pointed out that I hide my face so this fixes that problem.). I'm going to keep the look and leverage it for a stage personality thing.

Here is me dancing at Al Masri for the Sausan Academy of Egyptian Dance Recital in September, 2007. This was the first time I danced in front of an audience - ever - and I was so scared I couldn't smile and was happy my hair fell in my face. I relaxed A LOT in future performances.
