Please note that as of January 2012, we have changed our troupe name to RAKS SARIF.

RAKS SARIF presents a unique fusion of Middle Eastern and American Tribal Style belly dance. We are a troupe based in Silverton & Salem Oregon. We are accompanied by our musicians, RAKS ZEALOTS. The troupe is based in Silverton & Salem, Oregon.

In addition to festive dancing, powerful drumming, and exotic costume, audiences respond to the love and connection we have for each other: Raks Sarif & Raks Zealots have fun doing what we do and sharing it with the audience and our exuberance is contagious!

Look for us performing at events such as Canterbury Renaissance Faire, Silverton Fine Arts Festival, Shrewsbury Renaissance Faire, and the occasional Belly Dance at Brownstowne Lounge, First Wednesday in Salem.
