Hip-hip hooray!
Sadie is an International performing artist, instructor and
choreographer
who is recognized worldwide as one of today's most exciting and
talented
belly dancers. First seen as a ³Rising Star² on BD-TV Vol. II in
2004, Sadie
now teaches and performs across the globe, has over a dozen
instructional
and performance videos on the market, and is one of the highest viewed
belly
dancers on YouTube with over two million hits. In 2008, both IAMED and
Hollywood Music Center will release several new instructional videos
featuring Sadie.
Sadie draws upon an innate understanding of movement, instilled from 14
years of gymnastics and swimming training in her youth. She began
practicing
belly dance nearly a decade ago and has studied with many reputable
Middle
Eastern dance and music teachers from around the world. She experienced
two
influential moments in her education. Two extended visits to Turkey
allowed
her to study and observe the dance in its native culture, while doumbek
lessons from master percussionist and musician Souhail Kaspar gave her
a
great understanding of the varied Middle-Eastern rhythms and their
relationships between music and dance.
Sadie¹s lifelong love for dance, music and culture has prompted her to
explore and study other forms of world dances such as Brazilian Samba,
Salsa, Hip-Hop, Tahitian, Hula and Flamenco, while being mindful of
strong
Ballet and Jazz foundation. Sadie exhibits a style that is uniquely
hers.
Based out of Denver, CO, she can be found teaching her weekly classes
and
dancing at some of the city¹s finest restaurants, nightclubs and
events.
Sadie, in partnership with Kaya, is one of the founders of the exciting
dance company Groove du Monde, meaning Groove of the world, a perfectly
suited title to encompass the passion and respect the two share for all
the
music and dances of the world.
