belly dancing - Sisters of Chandani

Middle Eastern - Virginia Beach

Waterside Performance March  2005

"BodyWorks by Chandani has definitely helped to increase store sales when they perform in our cafe.
While we regularly have in-store performers, no other artist/performer increases the volume of traffic like the Sisters of Chandani.   The energetic crowd they consistently draw is enough to keep us asking them back time and time again -- thank you, Chandani!"

Manager of Border’s Music and Books

Meet the Troupe

I am Vanessa and I have been Chandani's student for over 3 years.  I am a proud forty something woman.  I am a mother of a wonderful teenager and I am married to my best friend of 18 years.  My hobbies include gardening and sewing.  My passion and my life commitment are to dance. I dance to exist as a whole and peaceful person - that's what makes me happy.

My name is Andrea and I have been a student of Chandani's for over a year.  Originally from Oregon, I am a writer with a wonderful husband and a cat named, Shadow.  Belly dancing offers me a much needed creative outlet, a way to slow down and express myself in the middle of a busy life.  The sense of community with the other women also makes Chandani's studio a home away from home for this West Coast girl.

My name is Jacqueline and I have been a student of Chandani's for about 1 and 1/2.  After spending 20 years in the Navy it was nice to find a creative outlet for expression in energy that honors women.  I've been married for 14 years to my wonderful husband Glen and been blessed with three furry cat children.  My hobbies include baking, sewing, reading, and other quirky hobbies.  I am a free spirit that found a home in belly dancing.

Hello!  My name is Kendall and I have been a student of Chandani's for almost a year now.  After spending the past 19 years riding horses, it was nice to find another activity that is so rewarding.  Belly dancing has become another outlet for me.  My hobbies include spending time with my incredible horse "Obie", making frequent trips
to the beach, and occasionally going to the driving range to hit the "small ball".
