About me

Additional skills:
Extensive experience working in variety as a dancer/entertainer including work with unsual props i.e. sword/s candelabra and many traditional and non traditional dance styles from the middle east. Experienced in staging small scale theatre productions and small dance festivals.
Additional information:
currently working on developing new/emerging dance style - experimental dance/dance theatre based on Middle Eastern dance movements with the addition of drama, socio-political messages - or the plain just unusual! ;-D
