Class playlist

Hi! This week we will be starting a basic choreography to help you practice steps and transitions at home and in class. This choreography is longer than you may be used to, but it's easy and fun and full of some of my favorite steps and combinations. Getting the music is easy: visit iTunes and make sure to click the Ping link. You will have to "follow" me to be able to access my playlists, but that's simple enough. Once you're all set with Ping, search for "alyssa's class mix" and you can download all the songs you'll need for the class for just $12.87. All the artists get proper credit and royalties - it's vitally important to make sure the artists who provide us with the music we love are able to support themselves. See you in class!

Time to party!


Summer is here, and that can only mean one thing: Omaris and Angelina are throwing their annual Harem Hafla Anniversary Toga Party on July 25th at Mythos in Clearwater. Cover charge is $8, which buys you a seat at a table or the bar (make some reservations - this is a very popular event) and all the spectacular local belly dance you could want, plus shopping: hip scarves, finger cymbals, music CDs, and beautiful handmade jewelry by yours truly. If you're hungry for more, pun intended, have a delicious dinner and a good glass of wine. Or two. See you there!
