My name is Nicole and I am a full time Middle Eastern dance teacher/ performer/ choreographer and troupe director in N.E. Ohio. I specialize in Egyptian Oriental, American Classic, Ethno Fusion, cain, veil, balancing, sword, finger cymbals, fan veils, and isis wings. I believe that belly dancing is great for not only your body but also excellent for your mind. I strive to meet the needs of my dancer's by creating an atmosphere for the passion dance and for the passion of being a woman.
In my studio I also teach Zumba®. Zumba is an amazing workout and the atmosphere is awesome!! You will have fun while burning calories and singing to the music!
I started belly dancing in 2001 and started teaching in 2006. I have a background in ballet, tap, hip hop, twirling, and gymnastics. I have studied under Kaeshi, Amar Gamal, Rachel Brice, Tamera Henna, Bozenka, Cassandra El Warda, Suzanna DelVicchio, Shakira, Andrea, Jillina, Zafira dance company, and Unveiled dance company.
I created a troupe in February of 2007 called Callista Hazine followed by Callista Anjune. Callista Hazine has a uniqueness from each and every member in the troupe. Each person brings their own style and flare to the troupe and when they dance you notice all of it. Callista Anjune consists of Nicole and Sandra who are long time performers together! We perform for Renaissance Faires, fund raisers, special events and they also perform at seminars.
