Instructor
Known as a patient and dedicated teacher, Aya loves sharing her passion with her students from beginner to advanced level. She specializes in Egyptian style and can teach how to use props such as veil, sagats (zills), isis wings, double veil or cane.
In 2013, she started an in-depth course to become a fully accredited PIlates instructor (APMA). Her new knowledge about anatomy and sound body mechanics has certainly enriched her bellydance classes.
Aya is also passionate about birth and pre/postnatal care and is training to become a childbirth educator and a Pilates instructor.
Performer
As a performer, Aya's first goal surely is to entertain. She also hopes she can move people's soul the way the music touches her. She loves connecting with the audience and shares her passion for this art form. Since 2004, She has been performing both as a soloist and as a group dancer. From small shisha lounge to big stages, she was lucky to dance in France, India, Morocco, Algeria and Vietnam before hitting Australia !
Choreographer
Aya only dances her own creations for solos and enjoys teaching choreographies to her students. Aya can also create a unique piece and teach it to you ! Please use the contact form to get a quote, making sure to be as specific as possible (song pic, length, prop if any...).
