Tribal Belly Dance by the Urban Gypsies - List of past engagements 

Home  The group started in 2001 with small local festivals and following on from the reputation from the work Zehara and her Trio group had done. We represent a new generation of Belly Dance - vibrant, energetic, funky and contemporary Belly Dance for the 21st Century! Year 2009 is now nearly fully booked and I have put a table of other jobs Zehara has undertaken. This excludes the regular Saturday Belly Dance residency at the Efes Taverna in Manchester.
