Welcome
Hi! .
Thanks for dropping by the Akasha Raqs Website.
Please have a look above this article, and join our newsletter, as well as linking up with me on Facebook. It’s important to me to be able to stay in touch with you.
There’s a special invitation for you on the Facebook page as well, which you can only see when you’ve “liked” the page.
Oriental dance, also known as Raqs Sharki, is a beautiful way for all women to explore their creativity; find a way of self-expression, and rediscover their feminine power.
It is a dance for everyone from all walks of life; irrespective of age, shape, size, culture, social back ground or religion. Akasha Raqs provides a safe, nurturing and fun learning environment for students.
The proof of the pudding is in the eating, right? Here’s a couple of links of my performances.

Ava is a most splendid dancer. She invokes true authenticity, while being original and avoiding all cliche. What is less important than my opinion is what I have observed in others. People who watch or have watched Ava perform seem to have been affected irrevocably. These lucky ones speak of her as something otherworldly, yet completely emotional, provoking the joy of dance that they strive for in their own practice. Yes despite all this praise she has received from others, Ava is always in the front row of every class, trying to learn and advance with every opportunity. She inspires Inspiration.

To the best teacher, the one who is never afraid to learn, never backs down from a challenge, does not accept the word “can’t”, who doesn’t believe in failure, only in gradual steps to success, who nourishes and inspires her students and who takes care of them as if they were her own children and who are seeds of her success. I appreciate you so much Ava, as I’m sure all your students do. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, home and light with us ♥
