Inspired by our former director and choreographer Patti Harsch, Benat Serat is a belly dance group who has danced together throughout San Luis Obispo County since 1998 at farmer’s markets, festivals, and holiday functions. Troupe Benat Serat’s name means “a group of pretty girls.” The troupe is available for performances and community events.

Patti Harsch has retired as of March 31, 2013.
