Hello, my name is Inna Kuznetsova and I am an Oriental Dance instructor. I am originally from Saint Petersburg, Russia. My dance education includes: Ballet, Latina, Jazz, and of course Oriental. Oriental Dance, which is often called Belly Dancing or Middle Eastern dance, is the style of dance that attracts me most. I studied and performed in Russia, Turkey, Egypt, and Germany. My teachers were Anasteisha, Alevtina Suvorova, and Irina Popova. I have taken different workshops and classes with Mahmud Reda, Nour, Amir Thaleb, Aida Nour, Beata and Horacio Cifuentes.

Oriental Dance lets me feel feminine, beautiful, sexy, fit, and confident. Oriental Dance is the perfect dance for everyone. It doesn't matter if you are young or old, big or small, male or female, short or tall. You can dance Oriental Dance. If you like ballet, lyrical, modern or folklore you will love Oriental Dance. In my class, students will learn different styles of Oriental Dance including: Raks Sharqi (classical Oriental), Baladi (purely Egyptian), Saidi (dancing with a cane), Turkish style, dancing with a veil, swords, daggers, candles, and cymbals. My students in Russia always performed and I hope to have a team here that would like to perform as well. The costumes for Oriental Dance are gorgeous! I am looking forward to seeing you in my class!
