Welcome! Different Drummer Belly Dancers is proud to announce the formation of its first student troupe: Calypso's Pearls! The Pearls are selected from students that DDBD have noticed in their classes. Those chosen to be in Calypso's Pearls have shown themselves to be enthusiastic dancers who want to improve their belly dance skills, perform at more venues, and experience being in a dance troupe. The Pearls are currently inactive.
