Mystic Dances
All dances taught by Mystic Bellydance are choreographed by troupe director and teacher Leanne, and therefore the property of Mystic Bellydance. From time to time Mystic Bellydance may return to our old dances which were performed under our former troupe name, and for which we have full permission to teach and perform. Any moves that are inspired by in whole or in part by another dancer will be acknowledged when the move is being taught, and where possible advance permission will be sought prior to use. This is part of the ethics that we stand by as a troupe and out of respect for our fellow dancers and teachers.
