Hi everyone, many years ago I taught belly dance. I won some awards. I was Miss Bellydance UK Fusion Soloist 2012. Then I really fell out of love with it. My body ached Out of nowhere I found I couldn't stand the music any more. I've no idea where it came from. But suddenly I find myself dancing every day again and feeling really in love with being a part of the community again. It's been this way for while now. I'm having such a great time. I feel I'm here to stay! I look forward to getting to know you all more and swapping tips and knowledge etc.

Thank you. I love fusion and a little cabaret. My favourite dancers are Olga Meos, Rachel Brice and Zoe Jakes. Recently I've been dancing to folk and classical. Sometimes I like to dance to trap. How about you?

Dance to trap? Am I showing my age again by not having a clue as to what this means?

Welcome to OD, Vicky. Happy to have you here!

I consider American Cabaret to be my primary style, although I was in a "Goth-Tribal fusion" group/class for a several years, and I also was the first, last, and only male to ever be inducted into a well known Folkloric troupe and was in it for about a decade before I moved away - and the troupe disbanded/leader retired the next year which was a shame because they'd been around since at least the 90s, maybe earlier.

Funny story peripherally related to Rachel Brice: Fairly early in my dance career, I was performing in a major festival. Walked up to the performer's entrance, and the gal there said "You must be Zorba!". To this day, I don't know where I got this, but I responded "No, actually I'm Rachel Brice, but I'm having a REALLY bad hair day!". I didn't think this gal would every stop laughing!
