Bellyworld Organisers: Eva, Nancy, Michelle - Art of Belly Dance Academy

BELLYWORLD is the creation of dancers Eva Green, Nancy Englefield and Michelle Kelsall-Singleton. ‘For us belly dance is not just entertaining and alluring, at its best, it is an art form of great beauty and as such, we respect its origins and also wish to explore the links dances of the Middle East have with other disciplines, hence the common threads in our SILK ROUTE shows. Our aim is to bring the ‘belly dance community’ together as well as to introduce this dance to others who may be un-aware of the depth and variety held within ‘belly dancing.’ Each month we spotlight another genre be it dances from other disciplines such as classical Indian or from a specific region such as Hungary. Not only does this bring a distinctive element to our show, it also reveals the sometimes un-expected connections between different dances. Placing our events in such elegant surroundings and striving at all times to treat our performers and audiences with utmost professionalism, we aim to show our respect and appreciation for all those who join us and for the art form that is belly dance. Our grateful thanks to all our dancers and supporters - see you soon at Bellyworld’s SILK ROUTE.
