Early June Field Trip to Charlottesville to see Joy (of Fire In The Belly) dance at AlHamraa, a Moroccan-style restaurant with beautiful atmosphere. Joy (along with troupe Anima Mundi) danced  in the first Fredericksburg show I produced (January 2000 at Eyeclopes!) She's an even more beautiful dancer now. Refreshing to see Tribal Fusion belly dance in a restaurant!

On May 27 the Basics 1 & 2 students got a colorful treat when several Wednesday 8pm students came to Parks & Rec in costume for a Tribal Odyssey demo complete with veils and finger cymbals!

The most important part of cane dancing is not to hit anyone or anything!	(Maharimah, Pixie, Kawakib; not shown: Nashida, Yaalini)
