TESTIMONIALS:
-Shelly Harris, CFM Executive Director Highland Business Association
“The Shimmy Twins have performed at our event, Highland Fest, numerous times. They continuously engage their audience, provide interactive entertainment and are definite crowd pleasers. I would recommend Marya & Emalee to any event looking for high quality entertainment!”
“Marya and Emalee have such amazing chemistry on stage. It’s rare to find in a dance partner!”
-Kaeshi Chai of Bellyqueen
“We had Marya dance at our wedding. It was the highlight of our wedding reception. We are from a small town and most of the people at the reception had never seen belly dancing before. For weeks afterwards when I ran into people that were at our wedding reception, Marya’s dancing was one of the first things mentioned.”
-Kristi Blumke of Wisconsin
