Elegant, engaging belly dance performances, workshops, and classes
Amy Bright and the rest of the troupe from Bright Eyes Belly Dance were superb! All the dancers were friendly, talented and professional. Their outfits were colorful and beautiful and they all looked amazing! They performed skillfully and professionally and made the best of the windy weather we were having with not a glitch to be seen. Their performances brought so much value to our event and we will definitely ask them to perform again in the future.
Side note: I was so impressed by the dancers and by Amy's teaching skills that I signed up to take belly dance classes myself. :)

Unless I'm on a professional stage, I end the performance by interacting with the audience and getting them up to dance.

I began my belly dance journey in beautiful Hawaii where I studied the art form for five years.
Now I perform at festivals, receptions, and other events and share my love of dance through teaching.
