Tesa Bio Pic My Journey into dance began at a very young age with basic instruction in ballet and jazz at Miss Pat’s Stage Door Studio in Easton, PA. Later, I trained at Arthur Murray’s School of Dance and continued on to become a ballroom instructor for beginning students.
               
My passion for the art was obvious and I very quickly became fluent in Fox Trot, Swing, Merengue, Mambo, Tango, Samba, Waltz, Cha Cha, Rumba, the Hustle and the popular Country Two Step.
               
As time went on, I continued my dance education and trained in Salsa and Belly Dance by private instruction in Bethlehem, PA. Although I’ve enjoyed learning the various types of dance, I’ve found Belly Dance to be the most intriguing! I quickly advanced in the art and soon was delighted to be participating in live performances.
               
I accompanied my instructor, Samara, during her regular engagements and soon branched out as a solo performer. As a loyal student to the art of Belly Dance, I am committed to expanding my training by continually attending professional workshops and seminars. For this reason, I’ve had the privilege of training under the direction of Belly Dance stars Mesmera, Suzanna Del Vechio, Natica Angilly, and Suhaila Salimpour.
               
Learning specialized techniques, being educated in traditional concepts of Belly Dance and excelling in modernized forms of choreography, has enabled to be the versatile artist I have become. As an accomplished dancer, my performances have been specially requested for community events, baby and bridal showers, birthdays, and parades to name a few. Additionally, I’ve had the pleasure of performing with my students, as we’ve been invited to dance in places ranging from medieval dinner theaters to Christmas display windows, as well as the local Arts festivals.
               
My greatest reward is in sharing my talents with others while inspiring them to continue on with their own mesmerizing journey into the art of Belly Dance!
