~ Shiraz ~

Shiraz, began dancing at the age of six, doing the normal dancing school venues, ballet, jazz and tap.  As she continued in to her twenties, a friend asked if she would be interested in taking a bellydance class at the local YMCA/YWCA, and without hesitation she said yes!

 Shiraz, has been affiliated with TheaterEast (Allentown, PA) and Fredrick Towne Players (Fredrick, MD), as a dancer and choreographer in small theater musical productions.  Some of the productions were:  Jesus Christ Superstar, Hello Dolly, Grease Paint, Fiddler on the Roof, Guys and Dolls, Annie Get Your Gun, Oklahoma, and Little Mary Sunshine.  Shiraz was a partner in a well-known magical illusion act that spanned the East Coast, and  also performed on the Jerry Lewis Telethon.

 Shiraz has been teaching many forms of  dance (i.e. Egyptian, Turkish, Lebanese and Cabaret style) for thirty plus years, and  MiddleEastern dance in San Antonio for sixteen years.

​Shiraz's technique takes on nuances that of Amaya, Ansuya, Sadie, Alexandra King, April Rose, Mahin, Victoria Teel, Mesmera, Sa'diyya and many more!

Affilations with SABA, ABDC, and MEDCA.
