Keli Medcroft [e] [h] Hello Tempest. I was wondering if you'd be interested in doing a video interview with Tribal Dance Nation? Please take a look at the site and let me know. Thank you, Keli Friday, December 2nd 2011 - 02:21:33 PM

BentKatana Had the pleasure of watching you dance at the New England Steampunk Exibition, it was so captivating and gorgeous, got me choked with emotion at the beauty of it all! Lovely job, hope to see you perform again! :) Sunday, September 18th 2011 - 08:40:01 PM

Conrad [e] Beautiful and poetic! Sunday, June 19th 2011 - 06:27:01 AM

Zeina! [e] I am a 35 year veteran of belly dance...clasically trained in Egyptian, Lebanese, Arabic, and Turkish styles. I have taught many students, and put much emphasis on costuming, as an old school seamstress. I am also a 63 year old grandmother and early childhood educator, who has taught belly dance arts to young children in the preschool setting, at the request of school officials. I must say I have never been so inspired to dance and create beautiful costumes as I am now, with your hard work to bring the "dark" side of the dance to belly dance artists. It blows me away...so inspiring. Thanks to you, your website, and other bee-u-ti-ful artists of this fusion style, I have many new and beautiful costumes finished, and in the making. I am also inspired by many films...Shakespearean, Orson Wells, Medieval costuming, etc. People LOVE my new style, an emergence of all the styles I have learned, with a definite leaning into "Noir". Kudos to you, Tempest, Zeina! aka Alayna Zeina Thursday, June 16th 2011 - 11:20:44 AM

Ruth Duncan [e] [h] I got my DVD of Bellydance Artistry with Tempest in the mail today. I am a complete beginner (I tried one other bellydance DVD, but found it way too difficult and inaccessible), but I am already feeling like I'm getting a lot out of the disc. I'm excited about working through more of it! Monday, June 6th 2011 - 10:06:57 PM

Yasaman Vrd'dhi [e] [h] I just would love to talk with tempest as a dancer, I am feeling lost on what I want to create and I think tempest insight can help me and my dance. Sunday, May 29th 2011 - 12:22:46 PM

tina melo [e] [h] glad to see your collection at RISD SALE. Please email me as I we spoke about my upcoming fashion show and would like to add your collection and dancers to this event on june 9th..Tina Melo Wednesday, May 18th 2011 - 05:56:38 PM

Jamie [e] [h] Really enjoyed your Beautiful Freaks dvd. I'll continue to work with it as supplement to other exercise videos & yoga. I find that Bellydance drills are the only thing that really work on my obliques, hips, and abs and doing some form of dance helps make me aware of my body which is essential in yoga. I see you're in Providence RI now? Have you ever been to ManRay in Central Square Cambridge? I used to love that club when I lived in Boston. Peace! Monday, March 21st 2011 - 05:11:12 AM

steward [e] [h] It might be a good idea to put a link on the front page to that new website for the intensive later this year... Friday, January 28th 2011 - 04:43:12 AM

Eleanor Luna [e] Hi Tempest. It was a pleasure to see you call forth the goddess Hecate this evening. I'm very thankful too that your husband was right there when I needed to jump start my car. Thank you both for making my evening! Eleanor Sunday, October 17th 2010 - 08:43:02 PM

meeezy [e] I am literally just starting belly dance lessons. I am 44 - maybe a little old for Gothic. None the less I am fascinated by what I have seen so far of this style. It seems so expressive and artistic. Sunday, November 8th 2009 - 01:35:50 PM

Vicki Cederquist [e] [h] I really enjoyed your class and your dancing at Gothla. If you have a mail list, may I be on it? BTW, the black leather belt you had on SA, is there a pattern for it? If not, where may it be purchased if possible? Thank you. Tuesday, March 10th 2009 - 01:34:32 PM

Tina Elliott "Dragon Fire Walker" [e] [h] Love your website... I have been looking into belly dancing for quite a while now. Mostly as part of my spiritual outlet as a Thelemic Shaman. My spirituality is highly based on ancient egyptian history/religion etc. But I am also strongly eclectic so to say...I am a high magick practitioner. Im incorporating belly dancing in part as my thelimic shaman healing/journying/meditation etc. And the whole acceptance of mind, body and spirit. I love the culture of GB and I do feel its exactly what Ive have been looking for...pertaining to who I am as well and my husband. I dont incorporate to anyone wanting to learn from me in having to be some very skinny gal etc. Im a mother of 3 kids myself lol!! And have many piercings, tatoos and the like.... Thus I am going forth to use GB dancing as my form to share spirituality and freedom to be expressive and proud of who you are and your body no matter what. ...Its going to be interesting!!!

Maud aka Egret [e] I'm morally certain that you don't remember me, but I remember you and your sweet husband and Desari from the Feasterville Belly Jam in July of '08. You were very kind to me as was your husband, Keith. Des is a sweetie and always has been! Dance on, Tempest, and show the world your beauty. With most respectful love, Maud Tuesday, December 30th 2008 - 07:34:07 PM

Jennifer [e] [h] I was intrigued by your myspace that I found through many links. I am still quite new to bellydance and am amazed by your photos. Each one feels as if you are jumping out of the computer and they are all different photographers...May I one day possess that kind of charisma in my dance...

lucretia [e] I love watching your work and adapting your moves into my own routines. I would absolutely love it if you would consider taking a "vacation" down under and perhaps conducting some dance clinics. We Australians are very hungry for guidance! Friday, September 14th 2007 - 02:07:37 AM

Ahlaam [e] I just wanted to say that your an inspiration. I have been involved in bellydance on and off for 5 years. It came a supprise to me to learn of "gothic bellydance". I really do wish to learn and experment with this new invention. I have very much enjoyed bellydance but beleved the dance could go further I just didnt know how. After seeing tribal come into its own I saw a more gothic influence in the dance. So my research turned me on to your site. Thank you for your information and wisdom and I look forward to learning more. Thanx, Ahlaam Friday, August 24th 2007 - 03:08:02 AM

kriket [e] [h] this is perfect. i'm glad i've stumbled upon this website. Wednesday, August 15th 2007 - 06:55:25 PM

C. Geary-Durrill (Aoutef) [e] [h] Just wanted to let you know that this is one of the best and most consistantly tasteful representations of Racks Goth I've seen to date - with a marvelous Art Noveau feel that visually quotes Theda Bara, Aubrey Beardsley, and the "darker" aspect of the early 1900s. So, when will you be updating with more images in your "string of pearls"? Thursday, April 19th 2007 - 01:44:17 PM

Blanca [e] Tempest, your site looks even more gorgeous now :) Friday, March 30th 2007 - 06:44:14 AM

Sanya [e] [h] Wish I could be on the right side of the sea to take part of some of the events on your new tour. I need to a) rob a bank b) win an obscene amount of money c) get a rich sponsor (with no demands, who just sponsors poor dancers for the good cause) Thursday, March 29th 2007 - 01:28:07 AM
