Sitara — who has been with me for just over two years — personifies the kind of “rising star” dancer that we see here. Through her own hard work and dedication (much more than my brilliant coaching), she has developed a lovely and personal interpretation of classic Danse Orientale in the Egyptian cabaret style.
This year, she is refining a previous work — adding extra dimensions and polish.
Those of you who saw Sitara perform just last May will get a treat to see how her dance has evolved so rapidly within such a short time. I’m particularly thrilled with how she has gained an ability to hold audience attention, and use a variety of moods and techniques to add interest to her dance!
I always love watching Sitara. She has such grace and energy when she dances, and her movements are always deliberate– never extraneous or unsure. Keep dancing, Sitara!

You have great stage presence and beauty in your movement. Beautiful performance!!
Sitara lived up to the build-up given in the original post! I haven’t seen her earlier performances and just cannot imagine her as a beginning dancer!
