about Najla (aka Naj)
The Dancers of Eclypse are likewise
blessed to have Phoenix's lively, lovely Naj as their troupe
director and instructor. Naj is one of several Belly
Dance Instructors in her own studio. She has performed for
delighted audiences at many Phoenix area venues, for both
public gatherings and private parties.This playful, versatile
dancer has her students dancing and having FUN with such ease
that class time flies by much too fast! A student of
dance all her life, Naj entered the world of Middle Eastern
Dance 19 years ago.
It didn't take her long to fall in love with La Danse
Orientale, and it quickly became a passion. Naj
communicates this passion in her role of instructor/mentor as
a way of inspiring her students on their journey along the
path of learning. One can't help but pick up on her heartfelt
enthusiasm for Belly Dance, and her sincere desire to pass
along to others the Joy that it's brought into her life. Naj's
love of the culture and costuming of the Dance eventually led
to her commitment to find and offer reasonably priced, top
quality merchandise to her students. Over time, she
offered her selections on-line. She's now pleased to
be able to offer these goods to on-line friends through
www.bellydanceshoppe.com.and
in her retail store adjacent to her studio. She
is the author and webmaster of this
site. |

In early 1998, out of her desire,
to help her students find a scarves and dancewear
