Hi, my name is Amora Shams, I have been in the world of BellyDance since the times were BellyDancers were seen as stars, since the 1980's. Teaching since 1993 always the purest and traditional BellyDance styles of the dancers of the past.

I hate to see nowadays how many dancers have destroyed the image of BellyDance creating another form of dance which is totally different from what use to be. I am a defender of the high quality and will like to have my School based in Egypt, the place where was the origin of this Cultural & Historic Dance.

I have been providing with International Certification Levels to my Formation Courses students (BBDC & BGBDC) since 2012, recognized by UNESCO Dance Department since 1995, and I am an Equity Member of the Spanish Association of Dancers in Madrid since 1998.

I created a course were my students starting from zero achieve bravo's from their Arabian public after 20 intensive days program, where they learn all what they need to know from zero to professional.

I am the only teacher in the world who can achieve these results in such a short time and is because I developed a unique teaching technique which was born from my mom's original teaching techniques, which are based in the ritualistic ancestral pharaonic times dancing style. She has been my mentor and she is known for been an archeological BellyDancer.

I only teach female students, because of tradition I'm not allowed to teach men, so I only have taught for free certain moves online, so my online income is zero.

I have been over 15 years with a YouTube account sharing my dancing videos to the world, and until today I never got paid for them, just because I performed to the music of someone else, which I think is unfair because without my dancing image, none one would have listen to the music I used to perform and uploaded to YouTube. I complained to YouTube once, and they removed the audio of my most watched video with millions of viewers. Nowadays still doesn't sound.

I am making this foundaraising, because I need help to create in Egypt a dance school of the Golden Era, when BellyDance was something respectful to watch and petfom.

For this, I need to buy a big land, and produce fruit trees of all kinds, growing organic vegetables, and have a farm, for feeding those who need to eat in Egypt.

I have been living in Egypt for many years, and there are many homeless children, known as the kids of the streets of Egypt. Mainly you see them in Cairo.

I want to have a main building where my school will be, and around the big building the small houses for my students.

Also a homeless children house, to give them food, education, and a future.

I don't teach BellyDance to make money, I just do it to pay my bills, that's why I'm not rich, if I was rich I would have done this years ago.

I'm also an architect, builder, and I love teaching others how to do things, such as surviving skills, crafts, painting, drawing, sculpture, etc.

I could help lots of people, but I don't have the economic backup to do it, that's why I'm here asking for support.

I started a fundraiser on GoFundMe and would appreciate your support.

Every single share and donation makes a difference and helps me get closer to my goal.

Thank you and God bless you all those who help.
