Isle of Wight Belly Dancing - Eastern Promise

Welcome to Isle of Wight Belly Dance.

Belly dancing offers you a community of friends and creates self-confidence in an art form that embraces all body types and ages. No matter what your age, shape or size - belly dancing is for you. In my classes I aim to teach the basics of belly dance, and exciting choreographies in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. You will learn a new skill, exercise, make new friends and most importantly of all - enjoy yourself.

I have 8 years belly dance experience and am the founder of the Eastern Promise Belly Dance Troupe on the Isle of Wight, and Isle Shimmy.

I have trained with a variety of fabulous belly dancers from around the world, in an eclectic mix of styles.  UK dancers include Afra Al Kahira, Candi Bell, Jan Piggot, Lisa of Serenity Tribal, Raheesha, Theresa Griffin and Vivienne.  International dancers include Leyla Jouvana, Les Soeurs Tribales, Razia, Sahira and numerous training sessions with the amazing Sadie of Denver.

I have also worked closely with Nasira belly dance in a joint project that involved Nasira’s ladies and the Eastern Promise Belly Dance Troupe, ending in a performance in Portsmouth.
I have performed at weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, hen parties, theme nights and dinner parties.

Eastern Promise has performed at Barton Manor, Blackgang Chine, Folk Station, LA Bowl's Fun Day, Party on the Prom, Northwood House, Ryde Regatta and Renaissance Festivals. We were also finalists in The Island Has Talent 2012.

The judges said:

“sassy, sexy, spicy, jingly jangly, full of energy”
“a crowd-pleasing act guaranteed to put a smile on your face”
”an inspiration to all women of all ages”
