Are you ready to dive into a unique online hybrid learning experience that combines the best of on-demand video learning with the personal touch of live online classes to ensure you get what you need to succeed?
Join me for this "Fabulous Fan Veil" 5-week choreography intensive to get all of that and more as we flutter, flourish and turn through a beautiful and exciting fan veil choreography that is a spell-binding addition to any dancer's repertoire.
"Learning this choreography was a personal challenge for me because I had never danced using a fan like the one used in this one. Sahira masterfully broke it down step by step and made it possible for me to learn it and perform it with confidence. I remember spending a lot of time practicing and actually getting it! I love the music and the dramatic arm movements, something about the flow was very satisfying and soothing to me and dancing it gives me a sense of emergence and freedom. There are some technically challenging moves in the choreography and mastering them definitely gave me a sense of accomplishment too. This is a timeless piece and performing it NEVER gets old. Looking for to performing it over and over again!

"I absolutely love your energy and teaching style, and have been following you on social media. I just enrolled in your online studio course. You have been a HUGE inspiration to me lately."

Learning the moves is only part of the adventure...
This choreography intensive will give you all the tools you need to successfully learn this beautiful piece in a supportive and engaging environment.
Weekly video lessons combined with live Zoom classes and an online private support group creates a community in which you can find support, share resources and celebrate your wins with other dancers working together by your side.
And once you have the movements under your belt we will move beyond them to begin to add LIFE to the choreography. We will dive into the real heart of the dance and talk about emotion, breath, texture and theatricality - the elements that make things really juicy.
I've had the honor and the privilege over the last 21 years to work with hundreds of dancers of varying levels of experience and I've found one thing to be universally true.
The dancer with heart is the dancer that entertains and engages the audience most, no matter their level of technical expertise.
"Sahira, I want to thank you! Because your teaching was with me during a rough time and helped me with healing. And now I am having so much fun with all the new possibilities!"

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!
