Lorraine Hartmann I have been interested "in all things dance" for as long as I can remember. While growing up, I always signed up for any kind of dance class that my mother and I could find--jazz, modern interpretive, ballet, tap--it didn't matter as long as I could learn something about the dance and dance! Belly dancing is a style that I have always thought of as intriguing, mysterious, beautiful, and magical. Until about a year ago, I had not found the opportunity to take a class and learn about this wonderful form of movement and expression. That is when I met Stefanie and my life changed! She is my teacher and my hero! I have learned much from her--not only about Synchronized Group Improvisational Tribal Style (SGI) belly dancing but also about living a healthier and more fulfilling lifestyle. After many months, many classes, and quite a bit of hard work, I was fortunate enough to audition for Stefanie's Student Troupe ~ Sacred Moon Tribal of Wisconsin and to be accepted into the troupe! I still have much to learn and I am enjoying every minute of it! Through dance with Stefanie, I am privileged to work with several amazing and wonderful women who share my passion for this remarkable dance form. I am looking forward to continued learning and future performances! Lorraine Hartmann |
