My parents are professional musicians (my mother also worked for many years with dancers of the most famous dancing group of Igor Moiseev (this assamble is widely well-known all over the world). As for me, I was going to make a career in sphere of music - I played the piano very well, but my great love to Arabic music and dance made me to change my mind.
I have been studying oriental dancing from 2002 with best Russian and Arabic masters (who visited Moscow very often). Also in this year (2007) I've finished Moscow State Teacher Training University.
Well, firstly I'd like to thank my Russian teachers - SOFIYA ROUDNIK, SAMEH EL DESSOUKI, AIDA HASSAN, IRINA POPOVA (splendid dancer and very talented choreographer).
Also I'd like to thank AIDA NOUR. Of course I'm not sure that she will read it, but anyway, she helped me with her words very much several years ago - during one of her workshops in Moscow she suddenly came up to me (to everybody's surprise, because it was in the middle of her class and there were a lot of people) and said that she liked me and the way I dance very much, and asked for my name. The words and opinion of this bellydance legend are very important
Also I am very happy about the fact that recently I could get acquainted with bellydance prima NAGUA FOUAD (when I took part in 1 World Bellydance championship in Lebanon of tv-channel LBC) - she was a member of the jury and I appreciate all her comments about my dancing very much.
