I am ramping up to do a bunch of instructionals next year and wanted to find the perfect teachers.... I'm hoping for someone who isnt overexposed already on IAMED stuff, but who is well known and a talented teacher.
And before you suggest Sandra, I wanted to announce that we are filming her instructional DVD next week!!

Thu, November 1, 2007 - 9:00 PMMyryka of Phoenix, AZ.
She's a phenomenal belly dancer and is absolutely fabulous with a sword. Her sword routines leave me with my jaw on the floor. She is super busy and travels a lot. I'd LOVE to have some instructional DVDs of hers.
www.myryka.com Check her out.
Oh, yeah, and she was a Fusion People's Choice & Congeniality BDUC winner in 2006. -

Fri, November 2, 2007 - 12:03 PMTaletha of Louisville, KY. !!!!!!!!!!!!!
She does great Egyptian style and Goth. AND she dances with a Central Asian dance company.
She's giving workshops all over the place now.
Plus, she's my tribe "friend" so I'm biased :)

Re: Who would you like to see on an instructional DVD?
Sun, November 4, 2007 - 11:17 AMI read on the topics thread that there is interest in advanced sword and floor work. The Portland, OR based Tribaret dancer Severina does some of the most amazing sword and floor work I've ever seen. I can also say she's a fabulous teacher and a really nice person!

Re: Who would you like to see on an instructional DVD?
Sun, November 4, 2007 - 11:39 AMWhile I'm at it, I might mention another teacher of mine, Enussah of Germany. She does some really beautiful latin/ tango fusion. But she is foremost an amazing choreographer, she can take any trend or style of belly dance and choreograph a great piece to it. She has one of the largest repetoirs of any dancer I've studied with. She also has fabulous stage presence and puts on these huge, extremely professional shows.

Re: Who would you like to see on an instructional DVD?
Sun, November 4, 2007 - 1:43 PMAlcina down in San Jose is one of the best sword dancers I have ever seen. I still remember her show at an early Bay Area MECDA performance in Berkeley...maybe seven or so years ago. It was swell.
Heck, she'd be great in one of the BDFD shows, too.
How about Lorna Zilba in SF? Great teacher. Her warm-up alone would make a good DVD!
Also seconding (thirding? fourthing?!) Shoshanna. She is a great teacher. -
-
Re: Who would you like to see on an instructional DVD?
Sun, November 4, 2007 - 5:50 PMAh Lorna.
She's fabulous at dancing and teaching, but not fabulous at answering her phone or clearing her answering machine of voicemails.
:-)
-
Re: Who would you like to see on an instructional DVD?
Tue, December 4, 2007 - 1:14 AMThanks Monica, I was just going to suggest Alcina! And not only for her superb sword/floor work, but her veil routines are also amazing and of course her drum solos are great as well! And... she teaches an abs class, which is an hour of a dancing workout. God knows how I miss this class, it's fun and it works on every muscle of your body while dancing all the way through. Anyway, I always think of Alcina as of a hidden gem of the community.
