A Tongue-in-Cheek at a Glance Guide on When to Hire a Bellydancer

Have you ever wondered why you can't seem to hire a bellydancer to jiggle her lady bits at your next rowdy shindig? Why does she become closed off, defensive, or even hangs up on you without so much as an explanation when you tell her you would like her services for a private party at the end of a dark road at midnight?

It is an outdated and frustrating notion that the general public still still thinks bellydancers are adult entertainers. So let's clear up the biggest misconception right now. Bellydancers, burlesque dancers, strippers, and escorts are not the same thing. They are all uniquely different and are hired for distinctly different occasions.

We understand your frustration at this revelation. We do all kind of look alike with our glittery boobs and hair, dancing with focus on the belly and hips, but that doesn't mean we are or do the same thing. How do you know the difference? Use this layman's at-a-glace guide to help you choose the right entertainer for your function.

Best of luck planning your next event!

Princess Farhana May Workshop

Here is an edited email I received with info on the Princess Farhana workshop coming up May 1-2 in Buffalo, MO.

It is almost time for my May workshop and I am so excited to have Princess Farhana, I have wanted to attend Princess’s workshops for some time now and thanks to my partnership with Judy we are able to bring her to Missouri. For the first time we will have Friday night & Saturday workshop classes. Friday night will be the “controversial” Burlesque class! I know you say Burlesque - Belly dance we try so hard to keep them apart - so yes one is Friday night the other Saturday. I been told this class is so much fun and face it girls sometimes you need to let your hair down and have some crazy fun!

The Saturday Lovely Layers has super reviews and Princess said it is her most requested class. This may be the best price deal for a 2 day workshop around only $75 for both days “must Preregister by April 24th”. If you want to dance in the Saturday night show please e-mail or call soon, it will fill up fast. If you prefer to pay with paypal e-mail me or call so I can give you that info. I can also take credit cards over the phone. Judy is handling checks, see form for Judy’s address.
