Korea’s best known Canadian belly dancer — Eshe, who graced our cover in May 2011 — is taking bellydancing in Asia up a notch with the first annual Asia Raqs International Bellydance Festival in Seoul from June 15 to 17.
Along with daily instructional workshops, the festival will feature sultry, hypnotic nighttime performances by top Korean bellydancers and Seoul-based expats. Several renowned Japanese bellydancers are also slated to fly over and share their love of Middle Eastern-inspired movements.
