Astryd Farah deMichele

One of my favorite Egyptian style teachers and a fantastic dancer, plus she leads awesome belly dance tours in Cairo. She is fluent in Arabic and lives in Cairo a big chunk of the year. She understands the Egyptian style, emotion, culture and she can break it all down in a way that is easy to understand. Her workshops are always challenging and loads of fun. Living in Cairo and learning Arabic has given her dancing that "egyptian" magnetism that is hard to find in dancers outside of Egypt.

I believe she just recently moved to Cairo and Dubai permanently and full time. I had seen her perform on a previous Raqia Hassan instructional video.

I love her! Took a workshop from her in Vegas. She is a talented teacher and gifted dancer, and really nice! She would be fun to take a Cairo tour from.
