Entire Solo filmed by Sean Kinlin. Donna is Visiting Artist in Residence for Smith College (2006-2008). Music is "Semename" by Mercan Dede, and "Last Mosque of Herzegovina" by Muslimgauze. Donna's Partial Program Notes: Like most transformations in dance, Tribal Fusion is a direct response to music's technical innovations and electronic experimentation. My personal approach is inspired by years of research coupled with the highest regard for my teachers and elders. This performance is offered in full gratitude for those who bore the ridicule, persecution and retribution often directed toward women who dared to dance publicly.

Donna, I can't even articulate the ways in which you inspire me to be a better dancer and a better person. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself always-- your bellydance pedagogy workshop in Atlanta was one of the highlights of my dance training. I am literally counting the days until TribalCon! :D
Above all, the technics, the amazing movements, I love her expressiveness, and these moves that aren't belly dance, like touching the ground, facing the sky. They're just so moving.
