I looked at your company's web site and noticed you have a member whose purpose is to narrate and I love the idea! Right now, we usually either have to submit an introduction to an emcee, send one of our members out in a cover up or try to make sure an explanation is printed in the program. I think that bellydance is misunderstood to a sad degree by many, many people, and in our experience, people have enjoyed themselves a lot more once they understood what it was. We do a lot of women's events in particular to promote bellydancing to other women. Those are usually my favourite.
I'm glad we've been able to have this conversation, and I hope to someday give you the opportunity to come back to Newfoundland

Dear Machiavellia,
Yes, Samirah has been great to work with. She studies dance and so she has a working knowledge of what we are doing, but she is not interested in performing. She does join us on percussion when we are presenting certain songs, etc. For example, we sing and play as group for some forms of Samri and she is a strong drummer. Unfortunately, she is leaving us as her life is changing and she will not have the time for rehearsals, etc. We will have to find someone new!
It was great to meet you via the forum.
Regards,
A'isha
