Lotus Dance Studio Founder, Director & Instructor

Alina

Welcome to Lotus Dance Studio. I strive to create a beautiful and nurturing environment for every woman entering our dance space. My passions are Tribal Style Bellydance and all its Fusions. My dance is eclectic and it represents a fusion of the different worlds I've come to love throughout the years. This passion finally led me to open this women's gathering place.
I hope you enjoy and grow with us as we share in the dance.

"Alina's patient and customized coaching, take the beginner students from the basics to intermediate and beyond.
