Melissa Cristina
I had the great pleasure of attending one of Melissa Cristina’s workshops at the Sydney Middle Eastern Dance Festival this year, so I’m glad to find a clip of her to feature.
Melissa Cristina teaches and performs in Melbourne. Her background includes jazz ballet, Flamenco, African, Street Latin and Lebanese Folkloric as well as belly dancing. For more details of her Richmond classes or to book a gig, visit her website Hip to Hip Middle Eastern Dance Studio
She’s performing in this clip with Sydney belly dancer Jrisi.
