Summer 2008
Happy Summer y'all! The big news this summer is I finally had auditions
for my first ever student troupe! I'm so excited about this new endeavor, I
have a great group of girls to work with and can't wait to unleash them onto
the stage to inspire even more women to dance this beautiful dance!
The classes at the new location in Santa Ana are going strong! I am soo
inspired by this new location! Being surrounded by all the beauty of
Flamenco....**sigh** Still keeping up with my Sevillana's class as well! I
highly recommend & encourage all of you aspiring in ATS to take a
Sevillana's class! They literally go hand in hand!
Lots of fun performances coming up too, solo and as Mirabelle-the finest
in American Tribal Style! Check the Calendar page for all the shows
coming up!
Classes at 2 locations in Santa Ana and Placentia! I am also available for
private and semi-private lessons. Get ready for the General Skills coming
up in August! E.mail me for dates & rates.
Hope to see some of y'all soon!

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 performs with her partner, Rachael, as Mirabelle-the finest in
American Tribal Style Bellydance.
Her most proudest achievement is recently being certified an official
FatChanceBellyDance Sister Studio and has also completed Teacher Training and the
General Skills Intensive!

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.
