"Amazing and thoughtful teacher. She explains the moves thoroughly and made me feel welcomed and part of the group!" - Amber Armstrong
I took a drop in class to try something new and fell in love with belly dancing! Zahra is an amazing teacher, she makes it easy to learn the moves and choreography. I drive 25 mins to get there from the far south end of Edmonton, to downtown. Totally worth it! - Nancy Green
