To put it simply, Zahira is a fabulous belly dancer any way you slice it. Her performances are high energy, technically brilliant, musical, and engaging. As a teacher she is warm and friendly while still being demanding and effective. I am extremely proud to have had a hand in the development of this talented professional.

I have known Zahira for more than two years as both teacher, mentor and performer. Her style of teaching is caring, direct, knowledgable and above all fun. She brings to her dance a special joy of life which percolates throughout the class. In fact she sparkles as she imparts her knowledge to us: not only is she beautiful, but she is also also brilliant!

Zahira’s classes are the highlight of my week, they are never boring, always challenging, and her choreographies are beautiful to watch and to learn. I enjoyed her classes so much, I followed her to another studio. She's that good! She is a very encouraging teacher with a big, warm, and supportive smile. When you watch Zahira dance, whether on stage or in class, you realize that this is someone that was meant to perform. It is a joy to learn from such a captivating and dazzling performer.
