Winter 2010

Hey all!    

Sorry it has taken me so long to update this but i find that alot of inquiries
come thru Facebook or direct e.mail.   But I'm going to keep this website
for those who still cruise them!   

  
 2010 is looking to be an amazing year so far!   I find my journey as an
ATS teacher has been quite rewarding!   To be able to impart the gospel
according to Carolena Nericcio is an honor indeed!   I'm also branching out
into performance coaching for the tribal dancer soloist or otherwise.   I
bring years of musical theatre experience both on and offstage, having
supervised numerous auditions, performed in shows, etc.   I find that this is
a valuable resource and one that is sorely lacking in the bellydance
community.   Not just stage presence, but just what goes into the subtle
nuances of a performance i.e. who are you onstage, where are you, feelings,
insecurities and using them to your advantage....yes, advantage!

I've been offering private lessons in my home in Fullerton for the ATS
dancer wanting to refine their technique and the soloist wanting to explore
and perfect their showmanship because ultimately that's what the audience
wants:   A SHOW!!!!    Call or e.mail for availability, rates, etc.   I look
forward to working with you!


And, last but not least, important announcement time!!!   I now have 2
performing troupes:  Azuluna is now my advanced student troupe and
Bella Luna is my professional troupe.   Azuluna will compliment Bella Luna
as needed during shows, performing in chorus and will give new ATS
dancers an opportunity to dance.   Bella Luna will include guest dancers as
well as the core dancers that comprised  Azuluna since its inception.   

For up to the minute changes, go to Facebook!   I'm just sayin.....

Cheers!

ABOUT ME!

Sooz is a dedicated student & performer of tribal style bellydance.  For the last 3 years
she has studied primarily tribal fusion bellydance with Rachel Lazarus Soto, after a year
of introductory courses in Cabaret style bellydance with Fahtiem.  She initially found
tribal style bellydance on the internet, first discovering the acclaimed tribal troupe,
FatChanceBellyDance.  Excited by the costuming, camaraderie and the empowerment she
felt from these dancers, she began to seek a teacher in Southern California to fill in the
blanks left by the videos she had been studying.

Weekly classes, endless rehearsals and countless performances with award winning
troupe, Devadasi & Blue Damsel have given Sooz valuable experience that has inspired
her to share what she knows with others.  She is continually studying with many different
teachers in workshops & seminars to improve her technique and understanding of the
body's movements.    Sooz was recently certified in the FatChanceBellyDance General
Skills intensive.  Currently,  Sooz dances with Atash Maya tribal fusion bellydance & fire
performance located in San Diego, CA.

Sooz lives to make others laugh and wants to bring the joy of tribal bellydance to women in
Orange County and beyond. She hopes to help other women realize the changes in
attitude and confidence that she has seen in herself as a result of tribal bellydance.  Most
importantly, she wants her students to unplug from the world for awhile and enjoy being
themselves.
