Belly Grams by Jillanna
Caution: Belly Dancer. May Shimmy without Warning!
Bellygram:
Usually 10 to 15 minutes (but this is completely flexible!)...
Usually a Surprise...
Always Fun & Celebratory!
A Belly Gram is a belly dance performance given as a gift, usually to an unsuspecting person. The recipient may be celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or merely needing a moment of frivolity in his or her day. Belly dancing at parties and special occasions is traditional, ancient, and respectable.... and fun, too.
Jillanna's Belly Grams vary according to individual requests, but often consist of two to four dances. She will then attempt to coax the recipient of the belly gram to dance. Other guests often dance as well! If so, Jillanna will let the music play longer and encourage the dancing.
Before the Belly Gram, Jillanna will want to be able to recognize the VIP and will ask for a description. She will also want to set up a meeting spot out of sight of the recipient, and will need to arrange for someone to start the music on her portable stereo or ipod in many cases.
Costume, props (sword, cane, etc.,) music, and choreography are always tailored to your event, and may be discussed as well. More than one dancer also available, at additional charge.
Style of dance may also be customized for your event. Jillanna (and her dance troupes) perform a range of styles from Oriental Dance to fusion styles.
