RAHEL - An amazing gem of belly dance



Rahel (Rachel Claman) fell in love with Bellydance in 2003 primarily under the influence of her mentor Narmaya. Rahel has been performing professionally in the Lower Mainland for over half a decade and has been teaching classes and workshops for the past three years. Trained in classic Egyptian Raks Sharqi from greats like Bozenka, Ranya Renee, Faridah, Rahma Haddad and Sabura, Rahel also derives inspiration from a variety of styles ranging from the folkloric to the more contemporary American Tribal Fusion. Her film credits include being featured on the show Hellcats and starring in an award winning short film by Drea Morin from the VFS. Rahel is currently performing every saturday night at Kostas Greek Taverna in Langley. And she is also currently teaching weekly classes at the Jewish Community Centre and the Drive Dance Centre in Vancouver. Rahel finds the greatest joy in sharing her passion by teaching and inspiring other women to explore the ancient and beautiful tradition of Bellydance.
