Hi, I'm John and I took
several photo's from your ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS presentation at the Hafla.
I really enjoyed the event and your dance was a spectacular moment.
Your appearance was spellbinding enough and when you danced to the
music,....well my brain swelled !
Ask me to be specific and I will spend "hours" describing the nuances of
allure that you weave so generously. For example,....from the moment
I laid eyes on you all, I knew we were in for a real treat. The
costumes and garments were so beautiful and the bindi's really
accentuated your beautiful eyes and focused my attention on the soul,
especially when you danced and concentrated on your art. I even loved
your hairpieces!!! Yes, I am a fan and will travel to see you perform
again. I do so hope to bear witness to your awesome energies you so
weave for all. I Thank you for the opportunity to witness this.
Peace and joy to you and yours,... John |

Dear Vikki,
I had a wonderful time at your last Belly Jam. In fact, that's
when I decided to start taking bellydance lessons. Until that
point I was just a drummer, with "Images of the Motherland". So,
thank you for having these events and making them so open and friendly
to non-dancers.
See you at the Belly Jam,
Suzanne |

Hipnosis was Mesmerizing!
by Fikriyyah (published in the May/June 2005 issue of
Zaghareet! Magazine)
Those of you who know me or who have read my reviews or recommendations
about workshops know that I often talk about the shortcomings of
workshops I attend. Fortunately or unfortunately, I tend to be
critical when I have traveled several hours and have paid what I
consider to be a sizable fee to study with a particular teacher or
group. With this in mind, I would like to describe a workshop that
I recently attended that was fabulous in all respects.

Whole
Lotta Shakin'
There's more to belly dance than bare midriffs.
by Megan Sullivan (published in the Sept. 2, 2005 issue
of Time Off Bucks County)
A group of women stand barefoot on the
hardwood floor of a Yardley yoga and pilates studio, gracefully moving
their bodies in time to Middle Eastern music. Their hips lift,
drop, lift, push out. Their bellies roll in and out. Moving
fluidly with arms parallel to the floor, their hands are positioned as
if they have small cymbals between their thumbs and middle fingers.
Hip scarves and belts with small coins jingle as the women dance
confidently, no matter their age, shape or size. They share a
common passion - a passion for American Tribal Style belly dance.

Hipnosis captures the essence of the
American Tribal Style with hypnotic (pun intended!) arm movements,
coordinated group improvisation and tasteful costuming. Their
enthusiasm and joyful stage presence are inspiring. They radiate
confidence with every move and charm audiences with their smiles. Their
love of dance shows in every taxim and shimmy.

Little Marakesh celebrates fifth birthday with special
Royal Feast
By: Frank D. Quattrone
Under the flowing orange
canopy, as the sinuous strains of Middle Eastern music fill the room,
they emerge - five tribal belly dancers known, for reasons soon to
become obvious, as Hipnosis.

Hipnosis Workshops

Vikki and Jessica were great. I actually jumped in on the
last session and I didn't feel out of place. They really
took the time to break down the moves to make sure people
knew what they were doing. I would tell anyone to take their
classes.
Thank you |

I have attended all four of the Hipnosis workshops and all I
can say is........more, more, more! They were all so much
fun! Jessica and Vikki broke everything down perfectly and
made it so that we wanted to come back for more and I still
do! Please have them back as soon as possible, the 1 Sunday
a month was just perfect and I look forward to 3 more
sessions!
Thank you! |

I thought Vikki and Jessica did a wonderful job. The
breakdown was easy to follow and they kept the class moving
along keeping my attention. I can't wait to learn more and
I'm buying the video when it comes out! Keep me posted.
