Siobhan Doncaster
Email: siobhan.bellydancer@gmail.com
Phone: 07909 223010
Styles: baladi, oriental, saiidi, shaabi and more.
Bio: I have been dancing for nearly 7 years and am a performer and teacher of Egyptian and Middle Eastern dance. An early childhood in the Middle East formed my love of the music from that era and region, and that influence has formed the way that I dance today.
I regularly attend specialist workshops and courses with national and international belly dance teachers and performers to improve my skills and knowledge, as you never stop learning. I am predominantly an Egyptian style belly dancer and love baladi, oriental, saiidi and shaabi but also enjoy dance in other styles such as Lebanese, Gulf, Iraqi, Tunisian and some Turkish. I perform professionally as a solo belly dancer for parties, restaurants and events both locally, and other parts of the country through the national Book a Belly agency. I am founder and member of Sadaaqah, a group of teachers and performers in this area who meet regularly to skills share and who are passionate about promoting middle eastern dance and live music in South Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire. I am also a member of NADA - the Northern Arabic Dance Association, and am fully insured to perform and teach.
My main intention through teaching is to make you feel great about yourself, for you to have fun and to guide you through the journey of belly dance - the origins, and different styles of the dance, in addition to technique and musicality. I currently teach in Doncaster on Thursday mornings and do one-to-one and small group tuition on request.
