Queen Mum/ Director/Choreographer/Solo Performer
Bashira (69) Formed this group (with her friend Cindy Andrew) in 2005. Before that she started belly dancing in Karamursel Turkey, in the early '70s while stationed there with her husband. There was no English speaking television etc. so taking belly dance classes seemed a good idea. This group of Divas has brought Bashira much joy and happiness. To watch the ladies that have joined throughout the years, grow from being shy and quiet, to outgoing beautiful dancers, willing to dress up and entertain in public. |

Ms Scherherazade (69) Group & Solo Performer (& Counter)
Ms Scherherazade joined us about eight years ago, and is a beautiful soul that expresses herself well in her dance. She has choreographed a group dance for us entitled "Older Ladies".

Farrah (60)
Performer (Group, Duet, solo) Ms. Farrah joined us about 8 years ago. She has the sweetest personality. Telling me she was going to stay in the back line. We changed that in a hurry! It is wonderful to see Farrah grow with her dancing in public. 2018 she joined myself & two others and performed on stage in Pensacola at a workshop/show. She should be very proud of herself! |
