Thread: Looking for instructor for out of state friend

I told a friend of mine I would help her find an instructor where she lives. SHe lives in Johnston R.I. Anyone know of a good instructor in or near this area? She's a beginner, never had a lesson in her life. I'm all the way on the west coast so not familiar with too many on the other end of the states.
Thanks!

She could start by looking on Shira's website, shira.net. That would be a big help.

Debbie Korkmas of Anatolia Imports teaches in Warwick RI. Another resource is Yahoo! Groups and Middle-Eastern Dance in New England - Home

I second Debbie at Anatolia Imports. Great teacher! She'll learn about folkloric moves and history as well as the basic and advanced moves. And she can go shopping whenever she wants... what more can you ask??

I took my very first classes with Sabra Jamal at Groundwerx in Providence, although it looks like she isn't teaching in providence anymore. Her classes are listed on bellydancenewengland.com.
