Through Dream Yoga and Dance I offer several styles of dance, including Modern
Egyptian Bellydance, Fusion Bellydance, and Bollywood/Bhangra infused with Kathak.
 
For house parties that do not have an adequate sound system or is outdoors, I can
provide a portable Bose Sounddock for my iPod. It does not require batteries or an
outlet, and has GREAT sound!

Step 1: Select a package
Select from the options below, or create your own unique package! Don't forget to use
the coupon on the index page when placing your order (before August 2010).

A private party performance of 20 minutes of professional Belly Dance (including
props, music, and a professional costume) for home, office, or large venue setting.
Pricing starts at $165 USD. Pricing does not decrease if the event is less than 20
minutes, as preparation time and costumes cost the same for a five minute
performance as they do for a 20 minute performance.
Note: holiday pricing, especially
for New Year's Eve  and New Year's Day, Christmas and Christmas Eve, Thanksgiving
Day, are double pay not including gratuity or travel costs.


Add ons:  two sets, Bollywood and Bhangra, original music, multiple costume
changes, additional dancers, teaching time (for small groups), a Yoga session, or a
Yoga and dance session. Prices will be negotiated depending on the number of
add-ons.
A teaching session and a performance are common packages as well.

ENCORE (repeating performances)
Restaurant, wine bar, and nightclub owners: live entertainment with belly dance can
help you create that experience that brings back your customers again and again! I
will help you design a package that is reasonable and repeatable. All performances
include a lovely professional costume, exciting music, and entertaining belly dance
with props. Please call to inquire about pricing and availability.
