SUZANNA's Profile

Dance has been at the core of my existence for a lifetime. With a focus on Egyptian Orientale and its folkloric influences, I have studied Middle Eastern dance over the past twelve years throughout the US, Egypt, and beyond with numerous world renowned instructors, building on an extensive background in jazz, West African, contemporary, and ballet, and 12 years in the theatre. I discovered my passion for belly dance while preparing for a lead role in a play, “Shivaree,” in which the character was a belly dancer.

Today my performances are regularly featured throughout Seattle’s premiere venues, and with arranged tours and private functions. As founder and producer of World Dance Showcase and other monthly cultural entertainment events, I bring together dance artists and musicians of all genres in celebration of dance and the language of music and movement. Since 2004, I've has offered classes and workshops in the Pacific Northwest, and am regularly contacted for private coaching by people of all backgrounds, needs, and goals.
