Valeriia, Award-Winning, Professional Dancer the Middle East
Recently relocated to Sarasota, Florida, from Mariopul, Ukraine, Valeriia is truly an artist, beginning to teach and perform and nestle into communities here on Florida's West Coast.
Valeriia is the winner of the professional level of the 2019 Ahlan Wa Sahlan competition in Egypt, the world’s premier bellydance festival! Not only is she adept in Egyptian style belly dance, but in many Middle Eastern styles. Having danced all over Dubai, UAE, Bahrain, and other countries, she loves teaching Khaleegy among other styles. She has relocated here after fleeing her home in Ukraine - her life there as a physician coming to a close, and a new chapter opening here in America.

Please help us welcome here to Florida, we hope you come experience her lovely personality, knowledgeable studies, and engaging performances!
