According to the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 14, verses 6 and 7 - "On Herod's birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for them and pleased Herod so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked."

The Shanti Baila Troupe consists of Lesley Lewis, Heidi Hudek, Clare Cochran and Kristi Sayer. They have performed at AppleFest and other functions in the Surface Creek Valley.

Tradition holds that Salome's (Herodias' daughter), famous (or infamous) "Dance of the Seven Veils" delighted King Herod so much that he promised the girl half his kingdom.

She's been into cars since she was a baby.
