Helena and Orientale Dance Company were a pleasure to watch in the "Champagne & Chic" event for People in Action and the Leeds Rocks 2011 outdoor event in Leeds Festival Fringe. Helena is an ultimate professional and very experience performer who successfully captivates the audience and has the highest entertainment quality. A pleasure to work with.

Anna Newman, Creative Director at People in Action and Leeds Rocks

I booked Helena and Natalie [Orientale Dance Company] for a belly dance duet performance as a surprise on my brother's engagement party. Helena was very cooperative throughout from taking the initial booking and tailoring the performance to exactly what we wanted (including Bollywood music) to the actual performance on the night.

Everyone enjoyed the performance; the dance, costumes, music, and the interaction where several of my neices and even myself got up onto stage for a dance with the girls!

The performance was so energetic, yet so elegant with that added bit of fun. I will definitely recommend you to friends and would book you again! Thank you so much for making our evening so enjoyable!

I just wanted to send you an email to thank you and your troupe for your fabulous entertainment on Saturday night!
