The Niraja Dance Company has been nominated for a 2007 Golden Belly Award! We are excited to be nominated alongside very well-known, nationally recognized troupes. We work really, really hard to present Middle Eastern dance in a way that is fun, but also elegant and respectful of the culture.

Please vote for us and for our director/mentor/friend, Lotus Niraja, who has been nominated for Favorite Oriental/Cabaret Dancer.

Please send an e-mail to zaghareetmagazine@earthlink.net, voting for The Niraja Dance Company for Troupe of the Year and Lotus Niraja for Favorite Oriental/Cabaret Dancer. We'd also appreciate your vote for Nakish, who has been nominated for Lifetime Achievement.

Thanks so much for your vote!

Rak on!
