About Badia Star:

With over 40 yrs of international experience, Badia Star is a multi-faceted performer and teacher of Raks Sharqi.

Her dance style is a combination of 1970’s American Cabaret fluidity and isolation work, with a strong emphasis on 1980’s Egyptian night club styles including strong rhythmic accents and sustained shimmies. Badia has trained extensively with the renown Egyptian choreographer Ibrahim Akef during her fours years of performance in Cairo.

Badia is a master of teaching multi-levelled classes and breaking down comprehensive technique for smooth flowing movement and feminine charm.

Badia offers technique and combo drills in a variety of regional styles as well as choreography that can be used by groups or can be elaborated and adorned by the experienced dancer.

Badia encourages dancers to explore individual expression, helping dancers to find joy and freedom to create personal style and explore improvisation with confidence.
