Bellydance Shows for Seniors

Seniors are among my favorite audiences. They light up and exude pure happiness. I always feel like an enchanted princess when I dance for them! Here are some pictures from a show I did at Mill Gardens assisted living residence in Midland Park, NJ. They got the Ultimate Package, a one-hour extravaganza including performance, demonstration of various props (finger cymbals, veils, wings, sword, candelabra), description of various bellydance moves and how they're done, audience participation, Q&A, and finally a mini class with the staff.

My grand entrance. Who doesn't love a splashy boa?! I just love all those smiling faces.

Time to enchant. For my veil number I like to use dreamy, sensuous music.

I'm ready for my close-up. "Dr. Pete" doesn't seem to mind one bit.

They were mesmerized by the real (sharp!) sword balanced on my head as I spin.

Some of the ladies were eager to do a little veil dancing of their own.

Here is a very happy King Tut!

Not to be outdone, a couple of the other gentlemen volunteered to dress up as Pharoah guards.

Activities director Joanne joined in for some of the fun.

Meet my new troupe. Vegas, here we come!
