درود بر تو

[Balloons4us]

Here is a true gentleman who has truely found the roots to his culture. He has become awake and not only that, he has the power to see the road ahead. I have a lot to say to him. Those who are rebuilders of the ancient Persian miracle culture are forever the heroes of all space and time!

[Farshaad]

I love the way Shahrokh speaks. His choice of words is amazing. The way he build his sentences is as beautiful as his dance to express his feelings. Love it. I enjoy listening to him at least as much as I like to see him dancing. Congratulation to him.

[nimagol]

what a beautiful perspective on Kasraee's "Arash"....I am totally proud of you

shahrokh jan!

[SuperLaste]

I do not understand this language. But looking at the man and his manner and the dance the message must be: be ancient and modern at same time.... Beautiful dancing, timless...Thank s for all that.

Proud to know you Shahrokh jaan. I still manage to cry a little when I see some of your work. Although, I still remember the little boy in you, all those years ago in Esfahan...!

Zendeh baad!
