Samira is a Bellydancer of Lebanese descent who performs in Edmonton and surrounding areas.
Samira is a popular dancer and performs every weekend in restaurants in Edmonton, as well
as for private functions. She is known for demonstrating enthusiasm, joy, and a sense of playfulness in her dancing.
Although Bellydance is something that Samira grew up with, she began her formal training in Bellydance
(also known as Oriental Dance and Raqs Sharqi) with an exceptional teacher, Tascheleia Marangoni.
It is through study with Tascheleia that Samira's passion for Bellydance intensified and Tascheleia's training gave
Samira an excellent foundation for technique.
Continually on a quest for self-improvement, Samira participates regularly in workshops with
internationally renowned instructors. Samira has traveled to New York to participate in the weeklong intensive workshop with
Yousry Sharif in 2005, 2006, and 2007.
She has also attended workshops with:
Beata and Horacio Cifuentes (she hosted two workshops with these superstars)
Hadia Saboura Amir Thaleb Karim Nagi Yousry Sharif Hassan Affifi of Egypt Mahmoud Reda Aida Nour Tito of Egypt
