The Divine Unrest - My Stories and Views on Belly Dance

One Saturday morning at the age of 6 in 1969, Leylaâ€™s life would change forever when she saw Belly Dancers performing on TV. With eyes glued to the screen, cereal coming out of her mouth she gazed longingly as each dancer wove her magical spell. Dreaming of the day sheâ€™d be twirling in a beautiful costume dancing to the envy of all her friends, mom told her good Catholic girls donâ€™t Belly Dance. But Leyla had been chosen and she knew for sure that one day sheâ€™d be the one dancing on stage and in front of big crowds. Starting with Leylaâ€™s impassioned years and her debut to a standing room only crowd in Taos, to dancing for the Gypsy Kings, The Divine Unrest is a provocative, insightful, lyrical storied narrative of Leylaâ€™s 26 year Belly Dance journey chronicling rejection, frustration, determination and triumph.
