Aszmara

45 Years Under My Hip Belt & Counting. Throughout her over four decade career, performances range from cabaret entertainment to full concert stage creating themed concert events, folkloric and innovative dances. Workshop sponsors in the USA and Europe repeatedly bring her back for her vast knowledge and informed teaching conveying technical and performance skills. Her teaching style is highly energetic and as a master teacher she teaches master and beginner’s classes with the same enthusiasm. Her workshops, thus, are highly appreciated both by professional dancers as well as by beginners. As one of the leading figures in the field of the Oriental Dance, she is also one of the founders and principal dancers of the AMMED Award Winning Middle Eastern Dance Company, Oriental Images as well as co-founder/co-director of SaZ Dance Theatre, a multi-cultural woman’s dance company. Aszmara's instructional DVD, Belly Dance... The Secret Desire won high praise from Habibi magazine.
