About Us
Dragonfly Dance was founded in 2010 as a dance studio and professional bellydance school under the direction of Zahira & Ruyah. We envisioned a welcoming, friendly, supportive, empowering and top-quality dance studio that could offer people of all ages an environment devoted to spread the love of bellydance and the knowledge of its culture, a community to share all things bellydance and a place to learn and refine our dance form as an art in all its wondrous possibilities.
We believe that bellydance can touch and change lives. It has changed ours! The effects of bellydance are deep and very powerful: through it, one feels expressive, beautiful and joyful, free to explore one’s own emotions and sensuality in elegant, graceful, flowing and juicy-gooey ways. Any female or male of all shapes and sizes will benefit from this joyful dance. It is for everyone! Whehter you are looking to become a professional bellydance artist or if you seek bellydance for fun, fitness, and fellowship! Dragonfly Dance is committed to provide an atmosphere of love, encouragement and acceptance where students can feel safe, creative and empowered while having the utmost fun, learning excellent technique and delving into the culture behind the dance.
Possessing briliant technique, musicality, powerful expression, and excellence as an entertainer, Zahira is well known and respected as a leading talent and sought after instructor and performer in the Toronto bellydance community. Both audiences and students love Zahira because she cannot help but share the intense love and joy that she feels for Middle Eastern music and bellydance. Her passion is contagious and her classes always leave people eager for more.
After watching her first bellydance performance in Halifax, Ruyah intensely sought to learn this art that seemed to captivate her senses; and so she met Zahira and immediately fell in love with her charisma, passion for the dance, and unique instruction and has been studying with her ever since, becoming a professional bellydancer known for her elegance, grace and gorgeous techniqud.
Together they are the founders and owners of Dragonfly Dance and leaders of the Dragonfly team.
