Biography
Giorgina is from Rome, Italy but has been living in the UK since 2017.
She had her first encounter with Belly Dance as a teenager in 2009 when she went to see Belly Dance Evolution, a show directed by the famous American dancer Jillina. Instantly mesmerised by its beauty and grace, she dived headfirst into the world of Belly Dance and started taking classes: 15 years later her love for it is still strong and growing!
For the first few years she studied fusion belly dance, until in 2013 she started taking classes with the Egyptian teacher Saad Ismail, student of the world-renowned Master
... Mahmoud Reda, with which she discovered her biggest and truest passion: Egyptian style belly dance or Raqs Sharqi (as it is known in Egypt). During her time studying with Saad she gained invaluable knowledge about Raqs Sharqi as well as Egyptian folkloric dance styles. Ever since then, she has been committed to learning Raqs Sharqi from native teachers as much as possible, a commitment that over the years has brought her to study with many great Egyptian artists as well as studying Egyptian Arabic to further understand the music and context of the dance.
From 2014 she was also a student of Italian-Tunisian teacher Maryem Bent Anis with which she performed as part of the Maryem Oriental Dancers troupe, bringing the magic and glam of belly dance to stages around Rome.
In 2017 she moved to the UK, where she always continues enriching her dance and widening her education about this beautiful Art.
As an eternal student and lover of all things Egypt, she regularly travels to Cairo to further her studies of Egyptian dance, language, culture and music.
