Desert Opal Dancers
The Desert Opal Dancers include women from diverse backgrounds and interests who share a love for the dance and the desire to relax and de-stress among friends.
Founded in 2006 by students participating in belly dance classes with Kara Kowert at The Wellness Center in Arlington Heights, IL, the Desert Opal Dancers have performed in a wide variety of venues including student belly dance shows, public libraries, theaters, outdoor events, national bellydance conventions and charity events.
Fans, friends and family members can show their support of the Desert Opal Dancers by wearing a fabulous shirt, hat or tote bag featuring the blue and white Desert Opal Dancers logo. Just visit our online store: www.cafepress.com/desertopals.
