"I remember seeing Taletha for the first time at a MEDSOK event and thinking "this is the girl who is going to put Louisville on the belly dance map." There was something about her, even then, that captivated you. And even if you couldn't define "IT" you knew Taletha had it. Through the years I've watched her grow from a talented performer to a true artist, in the fullest sense of the word.
"Beauty" is a word we toss around a lot without really understanding. But sit down and watch Taletha dance, and you will come to understand what beauty truly is."
