Still getting used to making sure I take enough photos lol. I truly love to live in the moment.
Can’t wait to be back. 🩷 I can’t get enough of the love and energy out there! These ladies killed it 💖

Wow what a beautiful night. Days later and I’m still in awe of the @jbellyburn 2nd Annual Student Showcase. 🥹❤️🍉 I’m so happy to have participated in a show that raised money for @thepcrf - it was an amazing production with so much personality, many beautiful talents.
There’s so many feelings, it’s very hard to put into words. I’m beyond grateful to have started belly dancing within such a lovely, positive group of women. I hope to continue spreading the love and joy for the rest of my life alongside them. This has truly been a life-altering experience. It has been a very rough ride in finding myself and my joy, being mixed with many things was always so confusing, growing up in NYC was not all sunshine and roses for me. The very thing one community hated me for being, another one celebrated. How funny is that. This is much more than just dancing for me. It is freedom. I hope to spread the love given to me by my strong family!
This was the first time I’ve performed my own solo bellydance choreography, a softer art form than my younger pre-teen approach to performance art, one that was always kept in the home or simply unmentioned. So it truly means the world to me. To perform to @abumusic - an artist that moves me like not many do, was INCREDIBLE! A dream come true. I hope you all felt my spirit. Thank you to everyone who helped create this entire experience, and thank you to everyone who showed me so much love and danced beside me in the veil piece, drum solo and more ❤️ You all live in my heart!!! ❤️
