Celebrate your special occasions with a Bellygram! Naima will come to your gathering and perform a dazzling 15-minute belly dance routine including audience participation and photo ops - surprise and delight your guests with a taste of belly dance and some jolly good fun! Bellygrams are perfect for birthday parties, retirement parties, bridal/baby showers, bon voyage parties, or any gathering where you want to add a touch of the unexpected!
When you think of belly dance, this is it! A classic Belly Dance Routine consists of a solo with finger cymbals, veil or Isis wings, and drums. Naima performs for 25-45 minutes. If appropriate, the second half of the show is usually more focused on audience participation. The guest of honor may be asked to belly dance! The goal is to have everyone on their feet and dancing by the end of the show.
This exciting package includes a performance by Naima plus a mini-belly dance lesson (30-45 minutes long) for all your friends, plus a special gift for the host/hostess! Samara will supply hip sashes for the use of up to 15 people during the class. This is a fabulous, fun package - perfect for birthday parties, corporate events, bridal showers, baby showers, or just as a way to have fun with your friends. Please provide at least two weeks' notice when booking for this package.
Two or more of our beautiful dancers will arrive with finger cymbals ablaze and make your event a night to remember. Included: your choice of sword, Isis wings, veils or fire props. Please provide two weeks' notice when requesting multiple dancers.
Need a really big show? The Na’Di El-Raks dancers can provide your event with up to nine belly dancers performing traditional dances from across the Middle East and/or a variety of specialty fantasy numbers, including sword, fire balancing, Isis wings, veil, silk fan veils, feather fans and MORE!
***Pricing is dependant on venue location (anything outside the general DFW area is extra), show length, lead time, amount of shows, and amount of dancers. Please contact Magdelena for booking availability and pricing!
Having a belly dancer perform for your wedding guests is a sure way to add an elegant touch to your wedding reception! You are unique and so is your wedding - Naima will work with you to create a special performance to honor your day and create lasting memories for all.
A Zeffa is a traditional way to present the bride and groom to the guests. Special music is played while the belly dancer leads the bridal party into the reception hall in front of all of the guests, and the wedding party makes a festive parade around the room until the bride and groom are led to their places of honor. What a way to make
an entrance! Live drummers and multiple dancers are often used to make an even grander spectacle - ask about the availability of drummers and dancers!
These themed birthday parties are a hit! Naima offers Princess Jasmine themed birthday parties for your little girl's special birthday event. Samara comes dressed as Jasmine and performs a short belly dance routine. She then interacts with a mini-lesson including hip scarves and veils for the little girls to use. She also offers complimentary Aladdin themed coloring pages and crayons for the children.
Please note Naima is available to be whatever princess character you wish for your child's special birthday party! All princess party packages come with an appearance in full costume, plus games/activities, and fun interaction with the children. All activities go along with the chosen princess theme. Some of the most requested princess party themes are Cinderella, Snow White, Jasmine, and Belle. Our dancers can perform as any character or princess you desire.

Booking & Payment Policies
A deposit of 50% is due at time of booking to confirm your reservation. The remaining balance is due upon arrival at your event, prior to performance. The deposit holds your timeslot as reserved. It is refundable up until two weeks before the event, at which point it is non-refundable unless the dancer has to cancel. Be assured that she will only do so in the event of extreme illness or family emergency. A substitute dancer will be arranged if you so desire at the agreed-upon fee.
Please be aware that our beautiful dancers schedules fill up quickly and try to book your event as much in advance as is possible.
Last-minute bookings (within 48 hours) will be charged at a higher rate.
Multiple bookings for a dancer on a given night are common; please plan your event carefully and coordinate with Magdelena for your reserved performance time. The dancer will arrive 15 to 20 minutes before show time, and will leave promptly after the conclusion of the arranged appearance. Delays resulting in a wait time between arrival and performance will be charged at a rate of $25 per 10 minutes of wait time past the agreed-upon show time, and may result in your show being cut short due to other previously booked engagements on that same evening.
Deposits may be secured via paypal, personal check, company check, or money order. Balance may be paid via paypal, personal check or company check prior to the date of the event, or by cash or money order on the day of the event.
Please contact Magdelena at magdelenaraks@yahoo.com or 646-298-7678 for payment arrangements.
