Dahlia has been teaching and performing various styles of belly dance for over a decade. Before moving to the Seattle area in 2003, she taught and performed regularly in Arabic and Turkish restaurants in Osaka, Japan for
two years. Prior to living in Asia, Dahlia performed solo and troupe work throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Dahlia is fortunate to have been born into a family of musicians. She has been surrounded by live music and song her entire life. Being a musician herself allows her to transform music into movement with expertise and ease. Dahlia has a BS in Anthropology and has also studied other forms of dance, such as ballet, jazz, modern, flamenco, Japanese, salsa, and ballroom throughout her life, but has a special place in her heart for Raqs Sharqi and Dance Orientale (Egyptian Belly Dance). Blessed with a talent for music and dance, Dahlia performs with unaffected intensity, skillful grace, and sheer joy.

Dahlia can be found wearing her genuine smile in Seattle's top restaurants and nightclubs such as Marrakesh Moroccan Restaurant, Caspian Grill Persian Cuisine, and Taki's Mad Greek Restaurant.
