Hiiii! Belated new year greetings and an update! I Hiiii! Belated new year greetings and an update! I know you’ve not heard hide nor hair from me in weeks 🫣, but I am alive and well(ish) and excited to tell you about a new weekly #bellydance show at the lovely @bluemezze Saturdays at 8:00pm!! 

This is my excited face. 😁 Captured by @abbeyphotographers from Ramena +Ferdi’s #wedding last spring. 💕 Felt right. 

If you come tomorrow (Sat) for dinner and dancing, I guarantee you will see this face, which is even more exuberant and infectious in person I’m told. 😆

Swipe for video from last week! And visit their profile for details.

And ze update….
Since the start of the year, I’ve been dealing with some exacerbated health issues and injuries - just a body that is being extremely vocal right now with needing ALL of my attention. Everyone and everything else has become de-prioritized.

So I’m focused on finding the right treatments and supportive therapies and tinkering with my herbs and elixirs and spirits, creating concoctions for #healing like a proper #kitchenwitch. 🌿And #wintering, a time for withdrawing from the world and deep rest. 🐿

I have so many beautiful #dance videos and photos to share in retrospect of 2022. I did a lot of stuff I’m proud of, surprisingly! Despite it also being a year of terrible ordeals I wish I didn’t have to go through.  But who said growth was easy?  I’m organizing what stays and what goes, finding the valuables among the ashes -  remaining open-minded and more importantly open-hearted for what comes next! 💗

Hope to see you soon. Xx

🔥🔥🔥 This wedding was so hot the venue lit 🔥🔥🔥
This wedding was so hot the venue literally caught on fire! And no, it definitely was not my fault - not literally, metaphorically yes. 🤓
(Despite a brief interruption, the fire did NOT put a damper on this beautiful celebration of love, yay!!)
Congrats to Gigi and Len! What a memorable #wedding!💕💍

A quick hi and recap of the first weekend of Decem A quick hi and recap of the first weekend of December- congrats to Gigi & Len who tied the knot on Friday at @stonehousenj. 💍
Top video some joyful moments dancing with the #newlyweds @gigiess and @lenk75 - congrats!!!!🥰💖🥂

Then came a jam packed Saturday with a #bridalshower in Staten Island, a #birthdayparty in New Jersey, and a #holidayparty in the Bronx 💃🏻🏃‍♀️💃🏻🏃‍♀️💃🏻😅

It starts again tonight with back to back holiday events every night until Sunday. #December was always a killer, but not really since 2019- so I ain’t prepared! But here we are. 😄

I haven’t been doing too many of these weekend gig posts lately, but I’ve certainly been working a lot as usual, and through a lot of challenges in alllll the areas. Working on some rebranding and changes to come in the new year, and I expect you’ll hear from me a lot more when I’m ready. Plus an onslaught of pics of me next to Christmas trees to come. 😉💚
Happy holiday season everyone!

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

💖Because healthy amounts of humor and humility make for the best performances, and the best medicine in life. 
💖And if you all tangled up in stuff that’s holding you back - let that sh$t go! 
💖 If you got no idea what’s happening, just relax and enjoy the ride.

Who else loves an epic 8 minute drum solo full of laughter and surprises? 🙋🏻‍♀️

📣Coming soon: workshops and online offerings on #performanceskills and #acting for #bellydancers. #performancecoaching and #privatelessons available now. 

🫶🏼Big love for my friend Said Fahmy who always keeps it interesting and #tabla soloist Yousef Diabes with Maurice Chedid and Nabawy Mo. And of course @djamnyc for producing these wonderful shows 🙌
BETTER WITH SOUND

That one time that me, Mariyah and Sira went on th That one time that me, Mariyah and Sira went on the Dr. Oz show. 😂

As cringy as it was to watch him run for congress, seeing his face so often made me chuckle remembering this gig lol

Hiring bellydancers to talk about the benefits of argan oil and demonstrate how we use it was so silly, but we had a blast doing it together- it still hits 9 years later. 🤣🤣🤣 

Felt like the right moment to dig this up and share. I’m so happy he lost. 😄🙌

I’ll put a link in my story to the full segment. With @flutteringby13 and @bellydancernyc 👯‍♀️👯‍♀️

Hiii! So, an overdue update of what’s current wi Hiii! So, an overdue update of what’s current with the last pic in a big ole phone dump of last week’s #weddings and gigs!

October was nonstop with a triumphant end to the busiest #weddingseason since 2019. 🙌

Sadly, I’ve had to take off all of this weekend because my dogs went bad! 🦶🦶

Recovering from something called hallux rigidus or stiff big toe, which sounds way sexier than it is. 😂 At least it’s fun to say. The steroid shot I got in my foot, though? 💉Hellllllllll no. Nope. Worst pain I ever experienced in my life! 🤬😨😣 Do not recommend. 

Although, i guess it worked and I should be cleared to go back to work next weekend. 🙏

👉10 snaps of happy moments last week. 💕Congrats and love to: 

🥂Diana & Taylor at Lands End on Friday
🥂Shoshana & Doug at Tappan Hill on Saturday
🧞‍♀️Maysoon’s 1st birthday on Sunday, preceded by
💃🏻 @alaturkany on Thursday and 
🐍 the most special concert on Tuesday with my soul mother @terre_roche at City Winery celebrating her book release (another post on this to follow)
🩼Aaaand lastly, the condition I’m in now ☹️

Hit me up if you know about #halluxrigidus and what helps! Or with costume ideas for this ugly recovery shoe. And all the Halloween parties!! Can’t believe I have the weekend off….for once a Halloween weekend without having to be a damn Princess Jasmine once! 😝 

Have a wicked weekend loves 🖤🦴🕸💫

Macedonian Circumcision parties be like…. Lucky Macedonian Circumcision parties be like….
Lucky is my life that this is just another Friday night at the office for me. 🥰 Live #drumsolo with #seidosalifoski… yes please!!! Favorite. Thank you Seido! ❤️

And of course a #circumcisionparty has to include a #sword #dance to a slow 9/8 by Souren Baronian. Topped off by a live #Macedonian version of Mohammed Ramadan’s Number One. Amazing. 
This was last Friday…I have a lot of catching up to do here, so many amazing end of summer events I’ve danced at, I’m truly grateful!
