Belly Dance With Nisaa – Shaw Studio

Nisaa is awesome! I completely agree with Emily R. and Laura K. I really don’t think you will find a teacher in St. Louis/​St. Charles who cares more than Nisaa! I started in level 1 in February of this year and haven’t been able to stop dancing ever since. I admit I was a little nervous when registering because I had never taken a belly dance class before, but after meeting Nisaa in person I’m just kicking myself in the butt for not starting a long time ago! I really look forward to my class every week. The classes are such a great value, because you learn so much! What I really love about Nissa’s classes are how much she really cares about the culture and teaching you how to dance. She always throws in fun facts and tips. She is also very patient if you don’t get it on the first (second, or third) try. She is more patient than I could ever be. I love the atmosphere in all of my classes — the women (of all ages, shapes, colors, and sizes) are a pleasure to be around and I highly, highly recommend it. She has classes in St. Louis (on Flad by TG park) and in St. Charles. Definitely sign up!

Nissa is a top notch instructor and performer. You will get quality instruction and learn of the cultural background of the specific dance style you are learning. This isn’t just a dance class. Nisaa cares very deeply for the the dance and the culture. I doubt you will find a teacher in this area who cares more than Nisaa.
See the review by Emily R., she hit the nail on the head.

Nisaa teaches belly dance technique with a strong emphasis on the cultural background. She focuses on raqs sharqi/​oriental, beledi, and folk dance; she does not teach American tribal style. She is an excellent instructor — very good at explaining things and very passionate about the dance and music. She offers 3 levels of classes plus various workshops, and her students have the option of performing in a recital every spring. If you have always wanted to try belly dance, check out her classes!
