REGISTER TO PERFORM
Feature yourself in a full scale show with professional lighting and a live band, captured by professional photos & video to promote your work! Accelerate your talent with practical feedback and detailed insights from experts. Maybe even win a title and some prizes along the way! The mission of Belly Dance Off is to bring audiences and dancers together to honor, showcase, and support professional presentations of belly dance. It's a competition and show like no other!
...This is truly one of Seattle's best events. After seeing the dancers in such a professional environment and hearing the judge feedback, my non-belly dancer friends and family in the audience now appreciate what I do as a fine art. And because the audience is scoring, they were compelled to pay attention to the detail." – Mellilah, 2015 finalist

Just received my copy of the video. Wow! What a high quality product! The DVD, judges critique, and high caliber of live music made the entire event totally worth my practice time, the admission fee, and any bits of stress that may have popped up. I appreciate the growth of learning a couple new songs and dancing to music that I personally had never used in live performance. That really helps to stretch one's listening abilities and use a broader variety of dance moves. Thanks again, and did I forget to mention the lovely rose? It smiles at me every morning, a daily reminder of the hard work, fun, and excitement." - Latifa of Portland
