Ishtar danced at the TEMPO dance Festival in the World Dance Category, Three shows held at Tapac Theatre 29 and 30 September, 2007. The Dance Critic : Mark James Hamilton commented on Ishtar's performance : ".....In stark contrast serpentine bellydancer Ishtar trembled and shimmied beneath a froth of pink ruffles and beaded fringing. She pulsated with minute impulses that created a myriad of quaking motions. When blowing kisses to the appreciative audience her knowing irony shines forth: she relishes her role – playfully fulfilling Vegas-on-the-Nile harem fantasies, while amazing all with her excellent precision and her seemingly infinite movement vocabulary. I’m not sure if Ishtar is Egytpian, but she is a great performer - and when you’ve paid your money, isn’t that what ultimately counts?"
