------------------------------------

Heartbeat of the East World Dance Studio is pleased to announce that this year's Northern Migration Tribal/Alt Dance Festival will be held at Asbury Hall at The Church! The Church, located in the heart of downtown Buffalo, New York, was saved from the wrecking ball by the Righteous Babe herself, Ms. Ani DiFranco. We are very pleased to say that the Righteous Babe Foundation will be the corporate sponsor of Northern Migration 2007.

Beautiful cannot begin to describe the space at Asbury Hall at The Church. From its soaring steeple, to its Medina sandstone Gothic Revival facade, to its Booth & Reister stained glass windows, The Church will be an inspiring backdrop to learn from the leading instructors of Tribal belly dance. The venue is perfect for our festival. There are beautiful hardwood floors for dancers' tender feet and there is a state of the art geothermal heating and cooling system. It is an environmentally-friendly approach for providing climate control. Finally, there is a plethora of hotels, restaurants, nightclubs and shops nearby to enhance your Buffalo experience.


This year, the festival will have an area known as Valizan's Casbah! The Casbah, located in the castle like underbelly of The Church, will offer a space where you can relax between classes, take notes, practice newly learned combos and grab a snack and a refreshing beverage. The Casbah will be open to all festival attendees but will be closed during the drumming classes which will be located in an adjoining room.


Each attendee will be given a welcome packet upon signing in that will give you tourist information for the Greater Buffalo Niagara region, a map to lead you to nearby restaurants, shops and clubs and a little goody to boot! We envision a great festival for all of you as we strive to make you feel welcome and appreciated and as we bid you farewell, we hope that you leave with a giant smile and a little place in your heart for the festival we call- Northern Migration!
