BELLY DANCE OFF 2014 - Round 3

Described as the "American Idol" of belly dance, Belly Dance Off is a multi-layered show exploring the secrets of entertaining and polished performance entirely improvised to live music. On Saturday, September 20th, Belly Dance Off returns to Seattle for round three, the last round of 2014 before the Grand Championship!

Guests will enjoy the opulent lounge and delicious menu at great prices on the second floor of Club Hollywood Casino. Dancers will arrive in their best costumes, draw songs at random from a hat, and perform un-choreographed with live music by MB Orchestra. Three expert judges present live feedback. Audience decides the Rising Star and Pro winners! Each receives a cash award and becomes a finalist in the Grand Championship. At halftime guests are invited to dance, with a special prize for the best shimmies!

Belly Dance Off is a Suzanna & Friends production, touring the NW between Seattle and Portland. After years of performing, teaching, and studying internationally, belly dance professional Suzanna of Seattle decided to put her theatre degree to work, launching Belly Dance Off in 2010.

"...this is truly one of Seattle's best events. After seeing the dancers in such a professional environment with live musicians and hearing the judge feedback, my non-belly dancer friends and family in the audience now appreciate what I do as a fine art. And because the audience is scoring, they didn't feel intimidated watching and were compelled to pay attention to the detail." -- Participating dancer
