The Husband of a Bellydancer Story.

Ok, so it is not what you were thinking. My beautiful found her way to belly dance a few years ago. Initially it was Egyptian style that caught her eye. Then one day, she fell in love with the movement, costumes and adornments of American Tribal Style. She was hooked. She signed up for the classes at Belly Up under the guidance of the Mighty Valizan. My journey really begins there. Her transformation has been nothing short of enlightening. Her grace and self confidence have flourished in those classes. Not only through the life filled with dance, but the bonds that have grown with Valizan and the others in the classes, studio and indeed the entire belly dance community. I have been dragged into this life with her, although not unwillingly. She has been the core of my support these many years, giving my support to her and dance has been a thrill ride. Through this, we have both developed a very strong friendship that lives on outside of the dance world. All of this is fostered in the studio. Joharah has created such a beautiful home for these women to relish in each others common love. Everyone is welcome, everyone is encouraged. All of us are blessed by this new found family.
