Diana’s Testimonial

Diana is a current belly dance student at Alegria Performing Arts Academy.

“Stephanie came out and did a belly dancing performance, and I saw how she did her moves and I was so inspired. Coming from a Middle Eastern background, I know the music and I wanted to get up and dance as well. Anyone who wants to learn how to belly dance correctly should take it from Stephanie because Stephanie has the techniques down, she has thoroughly explained each dance move with us. The class is just amazing.”

The interplay between precision and interpretation

I’ve always been fascinated by the possibility of two (or more) things being true at the same time: excitement and anxiety, curiosity and fear, and so on. To me, the beauty of belly dancing rests in the dynamic interplay between precision and interpretation. Regardless of the particular moves that I select, there’s a way that I choose to do them; doing them exactly as I intend is precision. As difficult as that can be, I try to remind myself that the magic lies in the interpretation. Getting lost in moments of music so beautiful that I feel completely immersed only happens if I trust myself to come back. Mastering this interplay is something that I will never feel like I’ve fully accomplished and will happily work on the rest of my life.

I know that you have your own yearnings and goals. Let me help you uncover and work towards them in 1:1 lessons, which allow me to tailor the experience based on your specific needs.
