Amala Ramaa has always wanted to learn bellydance. Her desire probably came from her older sister's bellydance videos, which stuck with Amala from a young age. Amala loved bellydance from the first time she came to class, and even dragged her mom into it, too.
She adores all shapes and forms of dancing, however bellydance has a special place in Amala's heart because it is not only good exercise but it also teaches you a positive way to reflect on the body. It doesn't matter if you are a size 2 or 22. She also likes the way bellydance is great for any age. Amala started bellydance when she was 15 years old and plans to still be dancing at 85.
She keeps bellydancing because of the wonderful instructors and fellow troupe members, and is appreciative that she has supportive friends who think what she does is fun and attend all the performances that they can. Amala hopes to teach bellydance when she goes to college so she can share the art form with others.
