ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Dance has been at the core of Suzanna’s existence for a
lifetime. With a focus on Egyptian Orientale and training in
numerous folkloric influences, she has studied Middle Eastern
dance locally and internationally for over a decade, building
on an extensive background in jazz, West African, modern, and
ballet, and 12 years of experience in the theatre.
SUZANNA discovered her passion for belly dance while preparing
for a lead role in a play, “Shivaree,” in which the character
was a belly dancer. Today, she is a high caliber performer,
producer, and teacher.
She performs weekly at Seattle’s premiere venues as well as
with arranged tours and private functions, and collaborates with
musicians and dancers to present at events such as World Rhythm
Festival, Arab Festival, Arts Gumbo, and Bollywood stage
productions. In addition, she is founder and producer of the
World Dance Showcase, which features different global dance
artists every month. Since 2004, SUZANNA has offered classes
in Seattle, and is regularly contacted for private coaching by
people of all backgrounds, needs, and goals.

“I have seen Suzanna perform in many venues, adapting herself
to the space and always capturing the audience. Although she is
an electric performer, her excellent character comes through in
her teaching.
Suzanna has taught my daughter Sofie for the last few years. I
appreciate Suzanna’s attention to authenticity and detail; she
has nurtured Sofie beyond the studio to seek out performance
opportunities and competitions and empowered her with
confidence.”
