She is also proud to be the resident bellydancer and a core member of the Rogue Swan Vaudeville Theatre Troupe. April teaches tribal fusion bellydance at Beach Bee Yoga in Havre de Grace and runs the quarterly Moonshine Hafla. She is also a certified instructor of Sharqui: The Bellydance Workout and has classes running at Cecil College. In addition to her experience in bellydance, April has spent much of her life studying many other dance forms, but belly dance is by far her favorite. |
Shasta (DE): Shasta is a dancer from Newark, DE. She has been a belly dance student since 2009, after admiring dancers at the renaissance faire. Shasta took her first cabaret classes with Iliana, studied a variety of fusion styles with Layla Ali, and currently supplements private practice with local workshops and walk-in classes. Formerly a competitive cheerleader, Shasta finds her ‘danspiration’ in all forms of movement.

Donna Eileen (VA/DC): In the middle of a Venn diagram of guilty pleasures that spans EDM, anime, J-POP, and video games stands Hatsune Miku, arguably the world’s most recognizable virtual pop idol. Miku originated as a voice from the Vocaloid2 Character Vocal Series software, a music application that allows users to synthesize vocals. With a name meaning “the first sound of the future”, this digital diva was the first voicebank to be fully personified, complete with bio and avatar. Since her debut in 2007, she was heavily promoted and became a cultural hit in Japan. She is the protagonist of a manga series and the star of a number of rhythm games on various platforms, and she even performed as the opening act for Lady Gaga’s ArtRave World Tour.
