Summary |
Serena discusses a recent trip to Egypt, where she leads tours for students of belly dancing. She compares her own beginnings as a performer to opportunities for belly dancers today. A Life magazine article on her studio launched belly dancing as an exercise fad in the 1970s, and this interest inspired her two books. Serena also discusses the creative potential of belly dancing, an example of which is her work Sisters, winner of the Ruth St. Denis award for creative choreography in 1983 |
