Performance and Party Information

Shahina’s belly dance performances are renown for being artistic, joyous, professional, and suitable for all ages. Performances are in professional costume appropriate for the venue. Workshops are conducted in practice attire appropriate for the type of workshop planned.  Shahina does not attempt to embarrass honorees or guests with vulgar or obscene dance moves, nor does she ”work the crowd” for tips.

Final prices will be quoted upon agreement as to the details of the performance. Quoted prices are all-inclusive, meaning that no gratuity, travel or surprise expenses will be added after the fact. If they are applicable, they will be already included in the quotation.

Some typical types of performances offered are:

• Bellygram —A short performance appropriate for restaurants, workplaces and private parties where you wish to surprise and honor someone celebrating a birthday, marriage, retirement, etc. when space and time are short and other things are happening. Shahina can present a special gift or message to your honoree if desired and prearranged. A bellygram takes 10-15 minutes and is priced at $195.   description
