Set list
Since we tailor the show to suit the customer, a set list can be provided for each show. We are a repertoire company so our set list changes as we add new dances.
Influences and inspiration
Because we are such a big troupe and such a long lived troupe, it is hard to say. I would venture that we have many influences. Rachel Brice, Zoey Jakes, Ansuya, Suhaila, Saidi, just to name a few. We all love the fame and attention that The Bellydance Superstars have lent our beloved form of dance.
