Dance is OK, Attitude is Not My experience at MamaSita Cultural Center? The dance is OK, but the attitude is not. I wouldn't recommend Mamasita to any student new to Bellydance. There are many other bellydance schools in DC that teach the art just as well or better. For those interested in Black belly dancers/Belly dancers of color (or any other ethnicity), Mamasita would be perfect if not for the fact that it is a very clannish, unprofessional, and unfriendly place. Unfortunately, the unfriendly atmosphere and the ever-present negative influence of founder and regular instructor Sunyatta Amen permeated the entire environment of the MamaSita Cultural Center and cast a pall over many of the positive aspects the organization claims to promote. Negative comments and personal attacks that have nothing to do with dance have no place at a dance school. Mamasita Cultural Center's "idea" of healing and positivity is admirable, but will remain unfulfilled and un-teachable until the diva-esque founder and instructor heals her own bitter, envious, angry, and insecure soul. - Everythin' Dance , posted 08/17/07 |

I saw Venezia's performance at BOCA fest 2005 in DC. She was awesome! Definitely check out her class that starts tonight. She wowed the audience with her hot, high energy performance at BOCA Fest 2005! Now Venezia serves up her brand of bellydance to DC! Hip Hop Bellydance! with Venezia Fridays @ 6:30pm 'Hip Hop Bellydance' is the hottest dance/fitness sensation in the DC metro area. And MamaSita is the only place to get it! Hip Hop Bellydance was created by combining traditional belly dance moves with "old and new skool" hip hop moves. Classes are taught to hip-hop, dancehall, Go-Go, Latin hip-hop and traditional bellydance music infused with hip-hop and RB beats. If you've always wanted to belly dance and enjoy the hottest music out, then join the fun in the "hippest" class around. Each class will include a "Work It" warm-up, and a mini choreographed routine. Interested students can also perform at the 2nd annual BOCAFest showcase (checkout www.bellydancersofcolor.org for more info). All ages and levels of dancers welcome. MamaSita!
