Monday, Monday. It is a day to decompress from the always busy weekends. This weekend was a big one. Qadesh Tribal hosted their monthly Belly dance event at Ground Control coffee house in Goodyear.
Ground Control is an interesting venue, a cross between an upscale coffee house, winery and local hangout. The writer in me adores this location. The belly dancer, she hates the miniscule stage area we are expected to perform on.
Qadesh always impresses me as a Tribal group. These women are beautiful, dedicated, and so sweet to be around. It is no wonder really, they are the product of Anaya Tribal, another stunning Tribal group in the East valley. On the Fusion edge of the spectrum, Jae and Vorpal Shimmy also impressed.
Of course, I cannot go without saying how stunning Dancers of DeNile performed. I am most proud of Majnouna and Sumomo for the beautiful work they did reloading Aiwa Aiwa and adding some hat tricks to the dance.
Certainly not least, I am bubbling with pride! Zafirah and Has’na, two of my favorite students, just blew me away with their stage presence.
Sunday, Sumomo and I took a drive out to Chandler to attend a Bollywood class with Kriti. We were both thrilled! So much joy and energy! I wish Kriti was not all the way out in Chandler.
Belly dance is work, fun work, no doubt, but it is work. With a show on Saturday and a free demo class at the Studio of Ocotillo in Chandler on Sunday, Monday is a welcome break.
