Aziyade

Aziyade was introduced to Middle Eastern music through her father's collection of old "Hookah Lounge" LPs. In 1995 she came across a videotape of American belly dancer Alexandra King and immediately fell in love with this amazing dance form. Over the years she has traveled the country to study with many of the masters of Egyptian and Turkish dance, and has worked extensively with choreographers Shareen el Safy, Hadia, and Suhaila Salimpour.

Aziyade has danced for weddings, bachelorette parties, birthday parties, church socials, and community cultural events. She enjoys performing Egyptian folk dance as well as Raqs Sharqi and modern Western-style belly dance.

 


Evansville Belly Dance (originally Evansville Danse Orientale Society) was formed in 2004 to promote the art of Middle Eastern, North African, and Central Asian dance in Evansville and the surrounding areas, and to encourage exploration of Middle Eastern music and culture.

We recognize  "Belly Dance" as a cultural expression of many peoples in Middle East, and we offer authentic instruction in both the ethnic/folkloric versions of many Middle Eastern dances, as well as modern Egyptian, Turkish, Lebanese, and American cabaret/nightclub style belly dance.

We offer group and individual dance instruction at many area locations, and we offer a full educational program for children and adults, demonstrating the music and dances of the Middle East and North Africa.
