Shahrazad Dance Ensemble performs folkloric Middle Eastern dances based on dance of the Levant, Egypt, North Africa, and the Persian Gulf. We also perform modern Egyptian and American Belly Dance. And we also perform imaginative and entertaining choreography to fusion music when we appear as our alter egos, The Wild Women of Wongo -- perfect for children's parties, holiday parties and science fiction conventions,
