Hi All,
I'm gearing up to teach at Saqra's showcase, this will be my first time in Oregon, so I 'm really excited about the trip, I hope you are all signing up and getting your shimmies ready!! Hugs, Aradia

I just wanted to pop in here and say that this was a really fun event! I was only able to go for a few hours on Saturday and must just say wow! Very different from many of the festivals back in the south where the show is in the evening, venders are often in a separate area, and during the day, the workshops are the focus. Don't get me wrong - I thought it was fantastic - got to see a totally new dancer perform - she had a great smile and isolations (don't remember her name though ;-(), along with other troupes (Znama & Cassiopeia come to mind right now - lovely sets both of them.) And I bumped into an old friend from Orlando, FL! Anyway - Great job Saqra! Hope to participate more next year. :-)
