Meet Ahlam Academy's Creator
Hello! I’m Anna, the creator and lead instructor of the Ahlam Academy of Middle Eastern Dance program at Oriental Phoenix Arts in the Cypress/Katy area of Houston, Texas.
My own belly dance journey began over 20 years ago and it has profoundly changed my life. Struggling with chronic depression and anxiety, I found that belly dancing not only helped me overcome these challenges but also boosted my confidence and renewed my sense of joy.
With extensive training and experience in Middle Eastern dance, fitness, and nutrition, I integrate a holistic approach into my dance instruction. I’m deeply passionate about helping others experience the same transformation that belly dance brought to my life.
I am passionately committed to offering exceptional classes and resources to support your dance goals.
If you’re ready to find your confidence and joy through belly dancing, join us for live belly dance classes in far west Houston, read a book, take a course, or enjoy my plentiful free resources.
