Mahari Tribal



Mahari Tribal is a collaborative tribal fusion belly dance troupe. We made our debut performance in Halifax and the Raqs Hypnotique show in March 2008, but it wasn't until 2010 that the troupe really started coming together. We perform tribal fusion bellydance along with theatrical burlesque and vaudeville style numbers.

Lucy McColl, Terra Jamieson, and myself are the core members, with additional members Karen Holmans, Haleigh Sheehan, and Jen Prescott for larger perfomances. Former members include Katie Eaton and Serrah Hughes.

The Mahari girls are so dedicated; 3 dance classes a week and multiple rehearsals. They put up with me trying to figure everything out and they are really supportive. I feel lucky to have such a great bunch of girls in the troupe. This term we're been working really hard and it's definitely paying off! We're all really excited to be a part of many events happening in Halifax:
