Kalyani

Kalyani began dancing about 4  years ago as a fun way to get in shape. What she discovered was a beautiful art form that changed her life.  With no former dance experience and two left feet, bellydance has taught her grace and brought her a great deal of internal peace and  joy. 

Bellydance has also provided a wonderful opportunity  for Kalyani to express herself artistically though both choreography and costume making.  Kalyani also has an intense attraction to “sparkly things” which she believes is genetic.

She has studied diligently under the guidance of some of Maine’s best instructors, including Josie Conte, Jamileh and The Pink Gypsy.  She has performed locally at the Center for Cultural Exchange,  several Velvet  benefits for Rippleffect, various community events and festivals, as well as several private venues.  

She is an early member of Naya’s Trance and feels fortunate to be part of such an amazing group of beautiful and intelligent women.

Kalyani also serves as the web mistress for Naya's Trance!
