about Najla (aka Naj)
The Dancers of
Eclypse are likewise blessed to have Phoenix's lively, lovely
Naj as their troupedirector and group instructor. Naj is the
Belly Dance Instructor for the City of Phoenix's Parks and
Recreation Department at Sunnyslope Community Center in
Northeast Phoenix, Naturally Woman's Spa and her own studio.
She has performed for delighted audiences at many Phoenix area
venues, for both public gatherings and private parties.This
playful, versatile dancer has her students dancing and having
FUN with such ease that class time flies by much too
fast! A student of dance all her life, Naj entered the world
of Middle Eastern Dance 17 years ago.
It didn't take her long to fall in love with La Danse
Orientale, and it quickly became a passion. Naj
communicates this passion in her role of instructor/mentor as
a way of inspiring her students on their journey along the
path of learning. One can't help but pick up on her heartfelt
enthusiasm for Belly Dance, and her sincere desire to pass
along to others the Joy that it's brought into her life. Naj's
love of the culture and costuming of the Dance eventually led
to her commitment to find and offer reasonably priced, top
quality merchandise to her students. She's now pleased to be
able to offer these goods in limited quantities to on-line
friends through www.bellydanceshoppe.com. She
is the author and webmaster of this
site. |

In early 1998, out of
her desire, to help her students find a scarves and
dancewear at affordable prices, Naj purchased a

home-based business. Naj had been self-employed the
previous 20 years with extensive training in marketing,
computers. She had 3 years of specialized training with
a company that taught ByReferral Only business through
