• Troupe Hip’Notic (Southern, MD)
Troupe ‘Hip’notic is known for their charismatic, sassy, and humor-filled performances, Troupe ‘Hip’notic has been performing their eclectic belly dance fusion throughout Maryland and DC since their formation in 2004. They settled upon the term ‘eclectic’ since it describes both the dancers’ personalities and their dance style perfectly.

Troupe ‘Hip’notic is a collective of women who respectfully borrow from traditional music and belly dance, while incorporating contemporary music and dance styles into their performances; as a result, their dance style is organic and constantly evolving. www.troupehipnotic.com
