Testimonial | Gabrielle, owner of Alegria Performing Arts Academy

“We’ve had 5 other belly dancing instructors over the last 10 years and it’s just now that we are able to have more retention.

I firmly believe that it is due to how Stephanie has created a welcoming environment and a community for her students. I highly recommend you try a class with Miss Stephanie.”

Diana’s Student Testimonial

Diana is a belly dance student at Alegria Performing Arts Academy.

“Stephanie came out and did a belly dancing performance, and I saw how she did her moves and I was so inspired. Coming from a Middle Eastern background, I know the music and I wanted to get up and dance as well.

Anyone who wants to learn how to belly dance correctly should take it from Stephanie because Stephanie has the techniques down, she has thoroughly explained each dance move with us.

The class is just amazing.”

April Rose’s Teacher Testimonial

April Rose, with a B.A. in Dance and Master's in Culture & Performance from UCLA, is known for her technical style and Dance Cohesion format. A former Bellydance Superstars performer, she now globally shares her expertise in performance and teaching.

This video is feedback from April Rose’s intensive Dance Cohesion program, in which Stephanie learned how to play drums and finger cymbals as musicians would —all while dancing.

“It's extremely rare to pass [the Stage 2 Teacher Assessment] on the first try. Only a few people have done it. You're in the elite, cream of the crop — and I love love love watching you dance. I would be super excited to be your student.”
