Hi Guy's -
Can anyone recommend any places to go & see dancing in the St. Petersburg, Flordia area?? I'll be there in a couple of weeks & would love to see whats going on locally. Also who's teaching in the area, I'm hoping to pick up a class while I'm visiting
Thanks in advance for the info

    Loud Zoo usually only posts things that THEY are involved in/associated with (after all - it's their tribe)

    If you're looking for classes in the St. Pete area, the Hip-Expressions is your place
    But if you are asking where you can go to WATCH dancers perform - there are any number of establishments (usuall Greek, Labanese, Turkish, or Indian restaurants) that host belly dancing.

    The ones listed below I know for a fact regularly have belly dancers (call before going to see which nights they have dancers performing)
    Tell them Chandra of "Beledi Bay" sent ya...

    St. Petersburg Nights - a Russian Restaurant on St. Pete Beach
    quite often has bellydancers perform. Hosts a Hafla put on by (Hip-Expressions) the 2nd Tues of every month
    The cover for the Hafla is only $5

    The Greek Village - on Park Blvd in Seminole
    has dancers every Sat night. Have a great meal and enjoy the show!
    (Ask which night Kimara dances - she is absolutely FAB!)
    Ok, so what if she is my biz partner - she's still a fab dancer!

    The Acropolis Greek Taverna - on 58th St. N (by the ICOT Center on Ulmerton)
    quite often has dancers (think is Sat nights)
    Hosts the Harem Dreams Hafla (put on by Omaris, Sevdjia, and Angela) the last Wed of every month.
    ($5 cover)


    And Special Events in Oct...

    Jill Parker Workshop and Gala Show - Oct 17 thru 19
    a weekend off bellydance workshops plus HUGE Gala Show the eve of Oct 18
    Held at the Thunderbird Resort on Treasure Island
    (visit Hip-Expressions.com for full detals, cost, time)

    BAMEDA Hafla - Oct 19th at 2pm
    a huge number Belly dancers and more from all over
    Held at the VFW on 4195 34th St. N in St. Petersburg
    (only $5)
