Jacqueline Rhodes began her belly dance career in 2000 when she began studying under noted international dance instructor and performer, Maria Barannco. Jacqueline gained an instant appreciation, talent, and what some might call an obsession with middle eastern/oriental dance. She has been trained in traditional Egyptian and Turkish technique and Tribal Fusion. Jacqueline teaches her students not only the history and various styles of belly dance but also the physiology behind the dance's serpentine moves. In June of 2008, she formed the belly dance troupe, Pandorium, composed of her most dedicated students. Jacqueline and Troupe Pandorium perform frequently around the Southeastern Louisiana region. |
