Helena was interviewed about belly dance costuming for Leeds Guide's fun regular "My Favourite Outfit" article.

Helena chose a beautiful lilac outfit by talented local Yorkshire costumier Mandy Teasdale to celebrate the fact that UK based dancers don't have to travel to Cairo to find goregous costumes!

She is pictured here dancing with Isis Wings.

When Helena performed as part of a variety show hosted by Imaginary Friend Theatre at Evesham Art's Centre, she received a glowing review in the Evesham Journal:

"From the moment belly dancer Helena began her routine to open the show until her finale at the end, the capacity audience in the studio theatre was hooked.

Hers was a breathtaking performance of grace and elegance - almost balletic at times"

The YEP dropped by to watch when the then newly-formed Bettys & Taylors Fondant Fancies WI booked Helena for a fun belly dance workshop.

The ladies enjoyed themselves so much that they booked Helena again the following year!
