Once upon a time a belly dancer brought her circus arts into her cabaret show and her sword balancing took on new heights. #tribalbible #oneofakind #swordondagger #balance #melinabellyancer #singaporeshow #donttrythisathome #melina #daughtersofrhea #moodystreetcircus #bellydancelife #circuslife #splits #fingercymbals #goddess #strength #wow #goddessmotion #victoriatheatre

My Mama Rhea, back on her feet 7 months after hip replacement surgery at the public hospital in Athens, Greece, teaching my students some crazy fast finger cymbal and footwork combos. Her seventh decade and still electric! #rheaofgreece #daughtersofrhea #moodystreetcircus #bellydance #legend #posthipreplacementsurgery #fingercymbals #zills #dance #class #melinabellydancer #bellydancemom #bellydancelife (at Moody Street Circus)

The bellydancer and the circus "wonder of a man"... This was a very special (to me) Circus Flora production where I danced and did a duo trapeze act with my husband Sacha Pavlata. Photo of us on the ring curb at finale by the great Harald Boerstler. Live in love! #gratitude #goddess #circus #bellydance #bellydancer #circusflora sachapavlata #melinabellydancer #trapeze #circusring #circuslife #tada (at Circus Flora)

Eric Franklin's writings on movement, imagery and alignment for dancers inspires me and my teaching. #ericfranklin #gratitude #lovetodance #ericfranklinmethod
