If you wish to see belly dance infused with cultural movement from all over the globe then this is the show to see. In the words of Bellydance Superstars organisers; “It is a great testiment to the art of bellydance that it attracts such wide and diverse interest from all over the world. When it attracts first class dancers, dancers who would compete well in any dance form but choose bellydance as their chief love, it really says something for the special nature of this dance.”

The performers are highly skilled, experienced and passionate about their art form. Here’s just a handful of the performers in 2010:


Sabah has an extensive background in ballet and it was not until she attended Columbia College to expand her dance education beyond ballet that she discovered her passion for bellydance. This lead her half way around the world to Egypt where she studied with famous Egyptian instructors such as Mahmoud Reda, Raqia Hassan, Aida Nour and many more during her year abroad. She attended the American University in Cairo and during this time that Sabah met Hallah Moustafa the creative genius behind Sabah’s costumes and bellydance mixed with pointe technique. Her creative merger of ballet and bellydance was quickly added to the show as a special feature and remains one of the high points in each show. Sabah is currently a principle dancer with Bellydance Superstars and one of the company’s top teachers for pure bellydance, beginners to advanced, as well as ballet-bellydance fusion.
