<div>Just want to make sure everyone knows that there is a Belly groove tribe now. <br/> <br/>Join in on the fun ... check out what that crazy Frederique is up to, post funny photos of her (I know many of you have some), make silly remarks, and honor the kick ass dancer that she is. <br/> <br/>http://tribes.tribe.net/bellygroove <br/> <br/>Heck, and while you're at it - check out the Electric Vardo tribe - frederique and I are currently managing booking for 2006 Electric Vardo events. <br/> <br/>http://electricvardo.tribe.net/ <br/> <br/>Electric Vardo started with DJ Amar, DJ Sep, Ultra Gypsy, &amp; DJ Dragonfly, bringing in the amazing talents of Frederique &amp; Belly Groove, Cheb i Sabbah, Janaka and Dhamaal, Dhol Rhythms Bhangra dance troupe, Turbo Tabla, Sila and the Afrofunk Experience, Tabla Rasa, Kitundu, &amp; many others. <br/> <br/>After months running as a primary performer, it seemed best that Frederique join as a promoter.
