DANCERS of the CRESCENT MOON

Dancing under the flag of the moon and sword for over 10 years now, DCM has been awarded an amazing twelve titles. As popular with the audiences as with the judges, DCM is honored to have received four People's Choice/Congeniality awards. Dancers of the Crescent Moon (DCM) perform ethnic and folkloric dance suitable for all audiences. We combine traditional Middle-Eastern steps from such dances as Saidi and Debke with lively staging and audience participation.

DCM is an award-winning troupe that has been performing in restaurants and festivals entertaining audiences throughout the San Francisco Bay Area for many years. Our repertoire includes the exciting sword dance and water pot dance. Our dances are derived from traditional regional dances including those of North Africa, Turkey, Persia, Egypt, and Arabian Peninsula.

The Dancers of the Crescent Moon are:
Ajita, Ayperi, Madame Nuit, and Siwa with new members:
Maya Munirah, Nonah and Saroya.
Costumes designed entirely by SIWA.
