Gems of the Oasis
Every year Jillanna hosts the Gems of the Oasis Belly Dance Showcase. 2011 was the sixth year!
All students have plenty of opportunities to perform, or not, as they wish. We always have a great time,
showing off the new dances we've worked on in classes and also improvising (dancing freely, without choreography) together.
We also enjoy throwing informal haflas (a hafla is a belly dance party) on a regular basis.
