Chantal Dance
Owner
Chantal is often reminded that at five years old, she would dance unstoppably every time her uncle put on the Middle Eastern music! Several intensive trainings in Egypt have shaped her dance style and deepened her knowledge of the rich and wonderful culture, as well as her understanding of the incredible meaning behind each love song. Chantal has celebrated guests of honor of all ages, from 5 to 86. "To dance means to be fully human, and to surrender to the way it draws out emotions and thoughts from the soul."~Chantal

Chantal is a skilled and talented belly dancer. You can tell by the subtlety of her moves that she’s been dancing for a long time and has a lot of experience. We were all captivated by the warmth and charm of her performance. Even my dog kept following her as she moved across the room!
She was also very professional, bringing a lot of care and attention to detail as we planned the logistics of the event. Before she started the performance, she sensed that some of the guests were on the conservative side, so she told me that she’d wear a scarf so she wouldn’t show too much skin. This did not in any way affect the beauty of the performance or her appearance. I was touched by her sensitivity, and those conservative guests were completely won over by the end of the show. Everyone’s been talking about it ever since! Highly recommended.

Chantal is an exceptional belly dancer and a true professional. I have been working with her for the past six years booking her for many different events through my entertainment agency. She is exquisitely talented, efficient, on time, will prepare any request that you ask of her and performs with many different intriguing and exciting props. Costuming is gorgeous! Specifically fire, she does an amazing Shamadan or Candle Tray performance. She even danced for our agency company party to everybody's amazement! You will not be disappointed in hiring Chantal.
