About me

Gender Female
Occupation Dancer
Location West Virginia
Introduction My dance name, Al-'Anqa (Al ENG Kah), is Arabic for "Phoenix". I'm a belly dancer of Egyptian style Raqs Sharqi, Egyptian Folkloric, and sometimes American Cabaret dance styles. This site is intended as a place for me to collect my writings related to the dance, arabic culture and politics. A record of my personal journey to understand my small place in this ever growing dance community.
