Hello, folks. Here’s a list of 7 8 (Because with this limited time offer, you get an extra link ABSOLUTELY FREE!) for the week of people who are primarily composed of Awesominium (No srsly, it’s in the Periodic Table. It’s a metallic classification and has an Atomic Number of over 9000. I discovered it.)
Vixen Fitness is a gorgeous studio located in Orlando Florida by Universal Studios. I can’t even come up with a satirical remark for them simply because they’re so awesome. They offer a variety of fitness classes ranging from pole dancing classes to ones with more interesting names, like “Peekaboo Pole” & “Lating Butt Lift.” (I’m rather curious about “Peekaboo Pole,” I mean…a pole isn’t the most effective hiding place.) I teach belly dance and bollywood classes there. Take my classes. Now.
Melanie Lajoie http://www.amagibellydance.com/ is a great mentor, teacher, performer and friend and agent. I also teach Bollywood here from time-to-time.
Ever woke up in the morning and thought, “boy, I could really use an elephant right about now”? You’re in luck. Elephants, Bhangra, veena sitar music, extraordinary entertainment, Rang Entertainment has it. If you don’t have them DJing at your event, it probably sucks (unless you have me there, that is. And if you have us both, then you have enough awesome to implode the cosmos).
Orlando Pagan is the uneasy feeling before every prostate exam. Yes, that is his real name. He’s a multitalented artist based in Orlando (see what he did there?) who specializes in body painting, painting, illustrating, making costumes and props (such as such genius inventions as the laser-spewing venus flytraps), and he has absolutely nothing to do with the Orlando Pagan Society (if that even exists). He also shares my birthday, so you know something’s wrong with him.
Tommy Castillo has DEM MAGIC FINGERS and the artistic skill you wish you had. Orlando and I like to sometimes harass visit him, huddle next to his fire, throw inappropriate things into his pool and play with his wiener. Dogs. He has dachshunds. Go to your local art store and you’ll see his art on the cover of Strathmore brand sketchbooks. And everywhere else.
Claudia is a Romanian vampire who has legs you wish you had, no matter your gender. Like most of my close friends, she’s one of those multi-talented sorts. Not only is she a model, but she is also a kickass painter. Because clearly, I pick the best people to chill with.
If you were ever to ask me if there exists a dancer that I look up to, that would be Asha. I don’t even have the time to sit down and pour my heart out right now, so that’ll have to wait. She’s hugely responsible for much of my initial success as a dancer, and she generously took me under her wing as her protege and got me into the world of professional dancing when I was just a widdle teeny teen. She’s an amazing dancer. Go. Now.
(Extra!)I am a part of the “Friends of the Orlando Philarmonic,” a volunteer group associated with the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra (obviously).
…and of course. Shameless self promotion. Deal with it.
Sevy Devi !
