Hafla Night (Belly Dance Show) with Katrina (Headliner) June 26, 2010

Katrina has been inspired by all forms dance since her childhood, but became fuly enchanted with Middle Eastern music in college and found her home in Raqs Sharqi. The intricacy of Middle Eastern music and the strength coupled with softness of the movement that accompanies it is what captured Katrina’s heart. Her love affair with belly dance is such that she finds fulfillment in sharing this joyful art with others both as a performer and as a teacher. Katrina is honored to have both studied and performed in Cairo, Egypt.

She is on faculty at Saffron Dance in Arlington, Virginia, directs Saffron’s Ayoub Student Company, and is a featured dancer in Saffron Dance theatre productions.

The consummate student, Katrina has travelled to Egypt to study with master instructors and performers. She has been privileged to study extensively with renowned teachers from Egypt and the US, including: Mahmoud Reda, Yousry Sharif, Farida Fahmy, Tito, Nevein Ramez, Aida Nour, Faten Salama, Aziza, and her mentor Saphira.

Katrina’s performance set includes Egyptian classical, modern pop, drum solo, taqism, beledi and saidi. She is skilled with veil/double veil, shemedan and raqs assaya (cane).
