Flutter Fan Veil Choreography
Learn a gorgeous choreography using a silk flutter fan veil in this step-by-step instructional course.
Get ready to flit, float and flutter your way to new choreographic heights!
I am excited to share this gorgeous number, choreographed by myself and fellow dancer Amana to a modern, non-Arab piece of string trio music.
We will first explore the technique and usage of a large single-hand flutter fan veil before looking at specific combinations to build the choreography. We will also be doing some good ol' belly dance drills and skill building to compliment our choreography work.
This choreography works best with a large single right hand flutter fan veil. It can also be learned with a more typical long fan veil, though some of the skills will be a bit more challenging.
(I recommend Silk-Bamboo for a nice flutter fan veil at a reasonable price and great customer service.)

Well hello there, fabulous dancer! I'm Sahira. 👋🏽
I'm a life-long performer and have dedicated the last 21 years of my life to empowering others through the beautiful art of Belly Dance. I am a lifelong musician and head over heels crazy about the finger cymbals. I am a self-proclaimed technique and music geek, love anything to do with bunnies and could live off of spicy Szechwan food for the rest of my life.
I also direct the BellaDonna Dance Company, voted Houston ’s Best Belly Dancers by the Houston Press and am founder and director of Houston’s premiere Tribal Style troupe, Urban Hipsy.
I love belly dancing! Seriously… I did not ever set out to be a professional belly dancer, but since dedicating the last 21 years of my life to it, I cannot imagine doing anything else. I was an engineer by training before starting my first belly dance class – which just goes to show that anyone can learn this beautiful dance!
What I love best about teaching – and I’ve had the opportunity to work with students all over the world – is watching a student grow into their dance – from that first “ah-ha” moment, to seeing them dance with a confidence that they never thought they had. This dance is so wonderfully empowering and can be enjoyed by every body.
I look forward to sharing the dance floor with you soon!
