Hannah did a wonderful, classy, and soulful dance performance and made my wife’s 40th Birthday event a memorable one for me and my guests!! Hannah performed in two parts – Theatrical Performance and Audience Participation. She entered with a veil to a fast, exciting piece of music to capture the attention of my guests. She followed the music with accents, pops, and locks with her body and hips, a truly invigorating spectacle! Next, she encouraged my guests to dance with her and join in the fun! Lastly, she ended with a finale and gracefully exited the performance area. Hannah exceeded my expectations of a beautiful and graceful belly dance performer!

– Gina G

Besides being a beautiful, skilled, and knowledgeable dancer, Hannah was an excellent teacher. She was organized in her method so that students learned steps and techniques which were then incorporated into a choreography, we could take home with us and practice. Hannah was able to work with varied dance levels in the class and adjust as needed while maintaining the integrity of the dance genre and style. The class was a lot of fun, and Hannah made everyone feel at ease and able. I look forward to taking future workshops with her and seeing her perform.
