Internationally Renowned Dance Master
Internationally Renowned Dance Master
“Be A Queen, Move Like a Goddess, Dance Like A Diva”
Jihan is an internationally respected dance master who has been performing
and teaching Near and Middle Eastern dance styles throughout the United
States, U. S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Egypt and the Czech Republic, nearing
28 years. In 2002, Jihan achieved one career-long dream, performing for the
first time in Cairo, Egypt at Raqia Hassan’s “Ahlan Wa Sahlan” Dance Festival.
Since, she returned to Cairo in 2005, fulfilling another career-long dream,
teaching as well as perform, at the “AWS” 6th Annual International Dance
Festival.
Jihan's constant goal as a performer and teacher is to represent the beauty of
the Arabic dance culture with dignity, elegance and pride. Jihan's teaching
method combines tradition and regional colloquialisms without sacrificing
professional form and technique. As a teacher, her objective is to educate the
student in the structure of the dances as well as their cultural, regional
backgrounds and the social, religious and political history that has impacted
and altered the dance throughout the centuries.
Jihan has been an established teaching staff member at West Miami Middle
Community School (Miami, FL), for the past seven years. It is at WMMCS that
she directs the Bellyrina Oriental Dance Academy (BODA), a student dance
company and dance curriculum. It is also at this public Dade County School
that Jihan introduced her “Unveil the Woman” workshops, for women only.
“Unveil the Woman” – More Than A Dance Experience, is a series of annual
workshops of beautiful and feminine dance and creative process. Jihan
created this special program to aid the participants in further developing their
dance structure and expertise, confidence and self-esteem, by fusing elements
of social, secular and spiritual dances of the Near and Middle East and
interpretive movement.
Jihan also presently teaches in the local South Florida area at Dancer’s Dream
(Pembroke Pines).
