I have been dancing on stages, in a professional capacity, since the 80s.However, I discovered my love for bellydancing in 1992 when I took a class from a friend. Nejma was an excellent teacher and invited me to join Farasha and Zayna in the Moon & Star Dance Troupe almost immediately. Later, we were joined by Aminah and Perizad, other reknowned dancers.
The Moon & Stars performed throughout NJ, NY and PA from 92-99. We went our separate ways before the new milennium. I founded a new troupe in 2002, Tribe Anisa. After a year, we disbanded, as members moved around the United States and overseas.
In 2006, I founded the BellyStars Dance Troupe. Under my direction, the Troupe performed around NJ.
Since 2008, I chose to return to solo artistry, setting up a Gothic Belly Dancing group, a new website, and teaming up with the FinDicators to develop a new fusion form of bellydance - Rockabelly!
I perform most forms of Belly Dance: cabaret, tribal, tribaret, gothic, fusion, folk, Ghawazee, Egyptian, Turkish, Persian, and Gypsy. To say that my dance is eclectic is an understatement!
My audiences are always entertained as I am an engaging performer. I like to use a variety of props and I often draw receptive onlookers into the dance. I am particularly adept at candle and sword dancing.
I taught at Brookdale Community College and Bayshore Fitness for many years. I have taught students aged 7 to 70, both men and women, and differently abled individuals. I currently teach at Dynamic All Star Dance and Cheer.
Occasionally, I run henna (mehndi) and specialty dance workshops. My most popular dance series "Belly Basics" and "Beyond Belly Basics" has found a home at Dynamic All Star Dance and Cheer in Keansburg. I have also taught my workshops in NJ and PA: "Henna, Healing and History" and "Dangerous Dance and Pointy Props". I enjoy art in all of its forms. Music, dance, and visual media.
My favorite performance gigs are multicultural festivals, although I have performed at weddings, family barbeques, nightclubs, restaurants and bridal and networking parties.
I am the proud mama to a childe bellydancer! In my spare time, I do alternative modeling. I have also advised several NJ High School Dance Teams.
