Hi I got your e-mail address either from your dance mailing list or from the teacher listings in Mosaic and Taqasim. I hope you don't mind me e-mailing you about an event I'm putting on in Bristol. Apologies if this does not interest you, or is too far away.  I'm wanting to start a regular(ish) hafla in the Bristol/Bath area for students of bellydance and thought that the first of these events might interest you as teachers and artists of middle eastern music and dance. Please see details below or the flyer attached. My main motivation for putting on this event was to give my students and friends an opportunity to perform in a warm and appreciative audience without the pressure of performing in a big theatre. It is intended to be a platform for students mainly, but there are one or two "star" dancers to come and see as well.  I would be hugely grateful if you could pass this on to your students/contacts and to anyone you think might be interested - anyone is welcome. As I said, this is an experimental first event and I apologise for the late notice. It would be fabulous to see some of you there (tickets available from me) or at the next one, so please let me know if you would like to know about future events or not. I am always keen to hear about events/workshops/new classes in the area and will happily advertise these to my students, classmates and fellow dancers, just e-mail the details to sachabellydance@....
