Testimonials:

"In just two classes, I am already experiencing a waking up of pelvic and lower back muscles that have been chronically tight for years! My lower back muscles especially have been typically bad, and not just because of surgery 6 months ago. Your attention to muscle detail, your beliefs in the importance of posture and your friendly manner make you top notch in my book as an instructor."
Diane Norton

"Nadira is not only an incredible performer but is one hell of a teacher and comes to you highly recommended. I’ve taken group classes and private lessons with her and have seen a dramatic improvement in my technique, posture, and showmanship. She’s very honest (hard to find) and has a natural teaching ability. She’s also a sweetheart and has an encouraging spirit"
Malia – Seattle, WA

"Nadira is one of bellydance's top exponents of this dance form today. Her commitment to the art, technical ability, and constant growth both in her dance and as a woman shows her integrity as an artist. Not only is she beautiful to watch, but a very responsible instructor. I am very proud to have Nadira as a part of my program."
