BOOKING WORKSHOPS AND SHOWS FOR 2009 NOW!!



Dilek gave a rich, exciting and varietal performance of Turkish Belly Dancing. Her several dances demonstrated her capability to keep the audience enthralled for a half hour giving themes and variations of these dances.  I am happy to have selected her talents for my friends who enthusiastically received her presentation.  I will be pleased to give personal recommendations if am asked.”

Dilek Is very smart and Very talented!! I started going to her classes more than a year ago... I didn't know what to expect... Then Wham!! She worked us hard... and I discovered muscles I never knew were there even if I have a background in dancing... i love her style... the way she teaches is very challenging and she would go over everything with you according to your level... try to build you up and polish up your moves... She also has an eye for talent.. if she knows you have talent she'll help you focus to strengthen it more.. She shares what she knows based on her experience... and it's ok to have chit chat in class as long as you focus... when She dances.. she gives life and expression to the music... even her facial expressions show the depth of feeling she has when she's dancing... excellent stage presence and she knows how to work and play with the crowd!! a very graceful and terrific dancer!! whether she's dancing Turkish Gypsy, Arabic or Egyptian with or without prop, She'll WOW you!! She would show how to make the movement more fluid... more graceful... how to choose the right music for a certain venue... what to play.. what not to play... what to do when dancing with a live band.. but she also encourages me to add my own personal style (or sometimes I'll just surprise her) and she'll back you up 100%... and whenever I dance and someone would approach me.. I'm always proud to say that I'm Dilek's student”
