What’s in a Name

Belly Dance is a common term for Arab Dance. Since we are located in Kansas City, the heart of America we call our entertainment business “Heart of America Belly Dancers of Kansas City”.

The name of our annual event is Heart of America Raks. It took us several years to settle on the names.

A few website addresses used were: KCRaks, KCRaqs, HOARaks, and more. We finally decided bellydancekansascity was the best name for school and entertainment website addresses.
