BELLYDANCE ODYSSEY

SATURDAY MARCH 7TH

What people have said...

Your show was absolutely stunning ... From the opening moments with the old movies and photos, through your exquisitely tender dance (we all had teary eyes and lumpy throats!); to the excitement of Rose's energy, Phynia and Ferah's great talent, Zlinky's strength and "darkness" and especially, the extraordinary Melissa Christina's incredible warmth, beauty and courage as she danced through a ghastly injury (who would have guessed from her brilliant performance!)
Warmest congratulations, dear Jrisi on your incredible achievement. My girls and I loved the workshops; and your show, as ever, was that of a supreme professional. Margaret Walker - Onyx Bellydance

What a great day and evening that was last Saturday. Just want to say, the 2 workshops (Phynia & Hilary's) that I attended was great. Phynia and Hilary are both amazing dancers and wonderful teachers. Loved them both and learned lots. The show was fantastic, the only trouble was, it ended too quick, could have stayed another 2 hours. Just loved it.
All the dancing was fabulous and how wonderful to see such talent in a young girl as Ferah. But as usual, you stole the show. It was so beautful, the baby and your gentle dancing, and the costume was just lovely, the whole lot bought a tear to my eye, and lump in my throat. My husband always comes along with me, and said
that Jrisi's Haflas are alway fabulous.  Thank you again for organizing wonderful workshops and shows. Look
forward to the next one. Mara Auvergne

Your evening with the stars was Fabulous, I just loved your birth dance, you looked exquisite. That will be a wonderful memory for your little family, he or she is already performing. The caliber of the dancers was wonderful to see. Keep up the great work Jrisi, you are changing the face of the dance, for the public to see how artistic and talented the dancers can be. Teresa - The Hills School of Bellydance

I came to your concert on Saturday night and just wanted to let you know how much I loved it. Like every other performance I have been of yours it was well organised, absolutely beautiful and very entertaining. I especially loved seeing you dance pregnant. I have never seen some one dance pregnant so that was an absolute joy. It was a very clever dance, I love how you made a baby out of your veil.

All the dancers were wonderful, I couldn't fault a single thing about the show. Ferahs performances just blew my mind and I really look forward to seeing her dance again soon. And I am so glad I saw Melissa dance, because I am moving to Melbourne shortly and would love to attend her class, she was a very charismatic dancer!

Thanks for putting on such a wonderful event Jrisi. Amy Westle

About Jrisi's solo...

Myself and half the audience were blubbering and tears rolling down our faces. i've never... EVER experienced a performance like that one. Forever grateful. Lauren Nichols.

It was not quite beautiful....it was more than that, it was poignantly beautiful incredibly vulnerable and we are all sharing this intimate private moment. Thanks for allowing us all to share that moment. Maria Persinitis.
