Delilah!!!

[Tablah]

another delilah fan here. :) we're so lucky to have her in our dance community. I've known about her forever (I started bd 20 years ago), and never really *got* what she was about for, oh, the first ten years. :) I tried taking a class series with her, and it was just so wierd and not what I was expecting or into that I dropped out halfway through. I guess my dancing and my intellect weren't mature enough for her yet! but now, I just like to hang out in the same room with her. she's really got something that everybody who dances can benefit from. I don't even know where to start to explain. it's like, she dances deeply. and lives dance as an all encompasing experience. and she's all about empowering you and every other dancer to do the same.

and she is FEARLESS. I LOVE dancing in shows with her. if I can swing it I always like to dance after she does (not always possible as she's such a megastar, but she's also so cool and down to earth and *real* and is never a diva) because after watching her, it sets me free and inspires me to dance as hard as I can!

I love the tarabbies, too. :) they're fantastic musicians, and just really cool people all around. they really respect the dancers as co-entertainers, which is really nice in this business.

to those up for a road trip, they're going to have a live cd recording show/concert in february. delilah, laura rose & dahlia (current bdou) are performing. it's going to be a fantastic night! and you could have your applause recorded on the album. :)

we will see you and Khalida soon!

Just found this thread, and wanted to contribute to the fandom :)

When I first started bellydancing I got Delilahs DVD set as a present and I've been in love with her dancing/teaching/personality ever since.

Needless to say, I'm *very* excited to be visiting Seattle this May :) *waves at Elisa and Erik* I'm unspeakably happy I'll be getting to teach there, AND dance with House of Tarab, OMG! Will be posting updates very soon!!

Another Big Delilah fan here! She is such a beautiful dancer. I just love the way she connects with the music and how that connection reaches her audience. That is one thing that stood out to me every time I watched her.

She puts it all in a performance ... even down to the eyes (she has awesome eyes at that). Thanks for starting this thread!
