Deirdre Macdonald has been belly dancing since discovering it while travelling Egypt in 1989. She qualified in Josephine Wise’s Academy of Arabic Dance in London and tribal belly dancing through Gypsy Caravan in the USA.
Having returned from Portland Oregon in late 2004, Deirdre has been teaching and enjoying travelling around the UK and beyond as well as setting up the first Ethnic Dance Certficate in Scotland in 2007. She has also joined Rashani International, a dance collective in 2005. The tribal community is growing in the UK which is fantastic and inspired Deirdre to set up the first Tribal Vibe bellydancing event in Glasgow Scotland in October 2007.

Deirdre also is certified in Pilates mat training and practices yoga and teaches this to complement working with the core.
Deirdre uses her knowledge of the culture and history of the dance to underpin classes and hopes to encourages her students to develop an understanding and respect and enjoyment of all styles of bellydance!
