Many people in the dance community have been very generous with their time and support in maintaining and expanding this website. Many, many thanks to the following individuals.

Shelley - Shelley is not only a beautiful dancer, she is also a beautiful artist as well. Shelley created the Philly Raqs logo, which is reminiscent of the Philadelphia LOVE statue in Love Park. She also created the banners featured on the website, and helped guide me in creating the design and color scheme for the site.

Arzher - Mike Barber has much more web page design smarts than me, and he's tolerant of when I email him urgently, only to never reply to his thougthful responses. (And for this, I am very guilty.) And Azhia is always an excellent sounding board for the ideas that I get, because neither of us can keep still.

Diana Shahein - Diana wrote "About Belly Dance" for the web page of the same name. I appreciate her time and effort in presenting a complex topic in such an eloquent and easy to understand way.

Maura - Maura is not only one of my lovely dance sisters and troupe mates, she is also a wonderful graphic designer. Maura has been very patient in helping me design business cards and postcards using the new Philly Raqs logo.

Fleur Frascella - Fleur Frascella wrote "How to Hire a Dancer" for the web page of the same name. I appreciate her tackling an important, and sometimes difficult, topic with grace and generosity.

Would you like to see your name on this list? Interested in helping out through writing, design, or, um, something? Drop me a line at webmaster(at)phillyraqs(dot)com.
