Samantha Hasthorpe
In 2005 Samantha had the honour of being invited to join Rashani, an international Tribal Style troupe based in Dublin, directed by Wendy Marlatt.
Samantha quit her job labouring on a construction site and left the UK in November 2005 to pursue her passion for Belly Dance through training with master teachers and originators of the art form in the USA.
She has travelled through Canada and the US teaching, training and performing in shows such as The legendary Suhaila Salimpour show in Toronto with Rachel Brice, Tiffany Bisconer and Ritesh Das. Now Level 1 certified in Suhaila Salimpour's format, Samantha is working towards Level 2. Samantha has also qualified in Carolena Nerricio's ATS General Skills course in June 2006, and attended regular classes and workshops with many of the best teachers in the bay area.
