Why “Greenstone” Dance Arts?
Greenstone Dance Arts was founded by Siobhan Camille, an exercise scientist and strength and conditioning coach turned raqs sharqi artist (“belly dancer”). As the primary teacher and choreographer for Greenstone Dance Arts, she knew she needed a company name that signified the strength and confidence she found through movement, but still incorporated the femininity she expressed in her dance style. Hailing from New Zealand, Siobhan found inspiration in her home country’s native greenstone; a strong rock that is difficult to break, but still able to be carved and moulded; a thing of undeniable strength and elegant beauty.
