    Harvest Hafla in Wood Dale IL

    Calling all fellow dancers and friends,

    Come out and join Melantha Azhaar in hosting their first annual Harvest Hafla. We're looking for dancers/troupes to perform, so if you're interested let us know soon. Spots are limited and will be on a first come basis. Just let Amirah know at aehunt@gmail.com to be added to the line-up

    The Hafla will be held at Serenity Lounge in Wood Dale on Saturday, September 27th at 7:00pm
    An appetizer buffet will be available starting at 5:30pm, and drink specials all evening.
    The show starts promptly at 7:00pm so come early.
    There's a $10 cover for the event which includes the appetizer buffet and a great show.

    Check out Serenity Lounges' website for directions and pics.
    Serenity Lounge

    The setting is intimate, it fits about 125 people, but there's limited seating for 75 people, so come early to get your spot! No reservations needed. There's a stage area up front with an open walkway down the middle and we're planning on a smaller area near the door so dancers can move freely between the areas when they're dancing.

    Hope to see many of you there

    Wow, I had a great time last night! Thanks to Melantha Azhaar for putting on a fabulous little hafla. Serenity lounge is a lovely place. There is a lot of spaces to utilize. Loved all the great dancers, including Smoke.. wow, those girls are beautiful!

    I'm so sorry I had to miss this one after all. Didn't know until a couple of days before that I couldn't bring my son and the hubby was out of town. Finding a sitter on short notice just didn't happen for me this time around. At least I know now for next time!! :-)

    What a great hafla ~ thanks to all of the wonderful people that came to dance and support us.
    The dancers were amazing ~ from their dancing to their costumes ~ each perfomance was fantastic.

    We're looking forward to our next one in February. As soon as we get the date we'll let you all know and start taking dancer reservations.

    Thanks again to everyone who came out for the show!

    Thank You Nilaja for WOW-ing us with your fantastic dance. You're always so much fun to watch and the crowd loved you! And next time we'll make sure you can set up a bigger souk for your sparklies and goodies.

    We really missed you Sat night. And next time we'll all know in advance so that you can make it out. Your girls were great, and LOVED their music!
