*Student Resources*

Hi everyone! I've decided to go ahead and create an
easily accessible page for student resources.
It is my hope that, as you grow as a dancer and
explore and enjoy Middle Eastern dance that
the resources on these pages will serve you well! Enjoy!!

Misha's Bellydance Forum~*~

As per the request of several students,
I've also created a forum for our classes.
This is a small, close-knit community of some
really wonderful dancers in the Sarasota area.
This is YOUR place to learn more about
the dance so please feel free to use it :)
Please feel free to post any and
all questions you may have!
