OMG= yesterday was a blow me away day!

It was great to see so many familiar faces at all of the dance events I took part in – thanks for coming out to support us at the South Asian Festival! Isaden, Kalyani and I had such a blast showcasing our new BFF routines { complements of Isaden, our lead choreographer]!

Working with the ladies in Bollywood For Fun gives me loads of inspiration for the “Bellywood” [Bellydance/Bollywood fusion] classes I’ll be starting to teach in the fall!

And Zafirah is priceless – it’s not over yet, there is still time to take the drum solo workshop today – details right below!  It was a pleasure hanging out with her and Dania and friends last night after the show!  More solos Dania!

Congrats to Isaden for assembling an amazing selection from Ottawa’s very talented pool of dancers for her Midsummer Night’s Dance show last night – if you were elsewhere, you missed a Kick-A** show!

Gonna chill today – have a good week,
