Yes, they did spell my name wrong but oh well. Last month I was a "stage kitten" at this gig and it was a BLAST! What is a stage kitten, you may ask? It's the person that runs and grabs all the clothes off the stage after the performer takes them off, provocatively. Ohhh yeah! Tonite I will be dancing. Bubblegum dub. Some new choreography and some new perspectives. Hope to see you there! Cafe Bellie: round two 12/11/2011
I am very honored to be performing for Cafe Bellie again. Hope to see you tonight! 
Website Changes 10/04/2011
HOWDY! I just received a blog comment from the cutest, sweetest lil chickadee in the world! (Hi Remy). She asked why she couldn't access my music viddy. Well, I have recently moved some things around on the website. I have simplified everything and deleted a few pages. I plan on launching a Blackhoodygrrl 2.0 version soon because I just finished an amazing photo shoot and want to design the new site look around my new pictures. To access all Blackhoodygrrl videos please go to the homepage, scroll down and click on the link to Vimeo (the big blue "V"). Links to my blog(s), gallery, etc, can also be found on the homepage. In other news...NEXT PERFORMANCE!! I will be returning to the Hubba Hubba Revue at the Uptown in Oakland on October 24th. Hooray! Oakland Performance 07/08/2011
 That's me ina perdy red dress, made by my dear friend Minerva's Antennae. If you live in or near Oakland, please come to the show! Buh-bye Facebook 06/05/2011
Hullo again! I just wanted to say a hearty "thank you" to everyone who has written me and told me they missed my presence on Facebook. I truly appreciate it. I deleted my account because it was the right thing for me to do. I simply do not have time to procrastinate on FB--end of story. However, I am still a presence on the interwebs! I have a personal blog that is not belly dance related and I have a vimeo profile. I plan on making more mini music/art films with friends in the future! http://blackhoodygrrl.posterous.com/ http://www.vimeo.com/blackhoodygrrl As always, as soon as I have performance dates I post them on this blog. I will also be teaching a weekly belly class very soon in the Oakland area. Wanna know more? Check back with this blog! Hugs :) Bellydance Showcase! 11/18/2010
 This will be such a fun show. All these lovely ladies I get to dance with are so talented. Lucky me! SHADOWDANCE 2010 and other news 11/05/2010
Greetings! November is quite a crazy busy month for me! Let's see...well, first off we have SHADOWDANCE. I am really excited about this show! The venue is the Oakland Metro, which is rad because I have already danced on that stage twice and feel quite comfortable there. I will say this: the piece I am performing is the most personal dance I have ever choreographed. It comes straight from the center of my heart. November 22nd I have another show at the fabulous Hubba Hubba Revue at The Uptown. I love this gig. Jim and pals are the coolest, most laid back people to work with, ever. November 28th I am privileged to dance with Ariellah and Nayun of Deshret Dance Company in Berkeley. I will perform a solo along with many other uniquely amazing dancers. Also, for the month of November, the lovely Frederique is on tour in Europe and she asked me to sub for her. YAY! I am subbing her on-going beginning and advanced ATS belly dance classes at Temescal Arts Center on Thursday nights. The advanced class is currently closed to the public, but the beginning class is open to everybody so come on down! Details here. I recently had a private lesson with Fred, and it was definitely worth it, as always. I am so happy and grateful to be subbing her class. Last but not least, my new flyers are here! They are super fantastic. In case you are wondering, the woman posing goth-like on the front of the flyer is Ruth St. Denis, a dancing hero of mine. For more gorgeous, awe-inspiring pictures of her, go here. The season is fall and my days are filled with downloading electronic music from obscure British djs, teaching private lessons in the morning, and working at the library in the afternoon. Such is my life. It is good. p.s. Dancers: if you would like beautiful flyers at a very reasonable price, talk to my friend Mikey. He will hook you up. Check out his website.   Club 6 06/20/2010
 Here I am with my bellydance teacher and dear friend, Freyja. We both danced great sets. It was a good night. A text from DJ Amar regarding TF Afterparty 05/19/2010
Martin, my partner, dj dragonfly said "my favorite piece was that...umm...blackhoodygrrl girl." If I were a cupcake, I would look like this.  |  Blackhoody
