Tracy Marie is no stranger to the stage having spent much of her performance career enchanting audiences as a professional bellydance artist. Tracy Marie’s skill as a performer and desire for continuous improvement has lead her to explore many avenues of movement, both in choreographed performance as with her bellydance troupe At the Hip, a well-established, modern cabaret style bellydance troupe; and that which is more unique, free flowing, and self-expressive as is with her flowgo performances as part of aGoGo, a gogo and flow arts collaboration of some of Calgary's top dancers and flow artists! Tracy Marie’s skill as a performer and her penchant for the avant-garde has led her to perform at a variety of stage shows, festivals, and club nights.  An avid performer, Tracy Marie quickly adapted to online performances sharing her art on several virtual stages as well as on her own Space Grove productions of Solstice & Equinox. Tracy Marie’s unique style of combining bellydance isolations with hard lines and expressive poses make her a captivating performer and a joy to watch! She is a dancer, flow artist, and light bender extraordinaire!
