Garlic-Fusion Belly Dance

Lynchburg Tribal is busy packing for the Garlic Festival--a Central Virginia tradition hosted by Rebec Winery.  Actually the history of belly dance at the Garlic Festival goes back many years and is tightly woven with my love of Irish drinking songs.  Years ago my friends and I made a habit of closing out each day of the Garlic Festival be heading to the Woods to listen to that bearded fella who sang the good, bawdy songs.  It wasn't entirely uncommon for Tina and I to get up a dance (many of you know Tina as the one for whose wedding the Wedding Dance was created).  After that bearded guy's wife started taking belly dance lessons, it was all over and herds of bedecked belly dancers began showing up at his stage and shimmying whenever he took a break.
After many years, Lynchburg Tribal is dancing, officially!  We hope you'll come visit us in the Woods at Noon and 3pm,
