Welcome!

Hello!  I love Middle Eastern dance.  I love Central Asian dance.  I love North African dance.  Sensing a theme here?  I make my living teaching and performing modern styles of belly dance, but I am a firm believer in knowing the cultural roots.  For my hobby, I study medieval Central Asia, and this blog is going to focus on my journey recreating the dances of the Islamic world, as well as pre-Islamic roots of belly dance.  I'll probably also talk about folkloric dance as well.  I hope you enjoy it!
