For over fifteen years, this mother and daughter partnership learned belly dance (from Fusion to FCBD to Cabaret) from various North Carolina teachers (such as Magic-Hips alumni and Sarah Hahn). As a result, they now put together choreographies to songs that inspire them.
Serpentine Jade is Laura Jae and Angela Dee. These two friends met through bellydance in 2017 and have performed with each other since 2018. They decided to begin working as a duet in 2020 and are excited to finally start bringing that idea to fruition.

Akasha fell in love with bellydance in 2009 when she met Naima Sultana, and is also a longtime student of Sarah and Satya for dance and aerial arts. Fusion bellydance and Lyra are particular favorites of hers, but when she’s not undulating or hanging upside down, Akasha enjoys reading horror novels, cuddling with her dogs, and napping.
