I found Katia here, on Yelp. She had excellent reviews, so I didn't hesitate reaching out. It was my husband's 40th Birthday - big, private event with a lot of friends, relatives, and business connections. Katia, arrived shortly after the party started, so you can imagine, most of the crowd was not up and ready to come in the middle of the dance floor just yet.... however, Katia was so absolutely wonderful, that 15 mins later everyone was dancing!!! That's a BIG indicator the party is on and whoever is responsible for such reaction is more than just great!!! 5***** My husband was born and grew up in Istanbul, Turkey, where belly dancing is a quite common occurrence (think a folk dance, which is so familiar, you know bad from good from the first move)... Well, typically, he's very hard to impress, where after Katia's performance, he kept telling me that it was one of the best performances he's seen. I, personally, was mesmerized and enchanted, updating my 2018 resolution list with belly dancing lessons from Katia! ))) I'd definitely hire Katia again! She's professional, talented, excellent, punctual, and kind. We wish her all the best, and hope we'll meet again! read more

Katia is amazing. We wanted to bring some extra fun and entertainment to our wedding, and asked Katia to perform at the reception portion. Everyone loved it! Katia performed several dances, which had us all transfixed. She then invited first my wife and I, and then guests to join in. It was a nice surprise for the guests and really set the mood for party that followed. I really credit Katia for bringing the fun to party. In addition to being highly skilled, Katia was incredibly easy to work with (a true professional). I would highly recommend Katia for your next celebration. read more

Katia Belly Dance - Dance Studios Near Me

She was great at the 50th birthday party where I DJd at yesterday. Would recommend her to everyone to spice up your party.

I just had my wedding last Saturday, Katia is very professional! She did a very great job and my guests love it. However, I have to give her three stars because of her partner that she work with! Her partner was great for the first 15 min. but when my guests started to shower her with big bills she started to dance dirty! A lot of my guests left early because they started to feel uncomfortable! My husband and I also received calls from our guests and relatives the next day telling us the belly dancer was fun for the first 15 min. but it was out of hand after that! It felt like R rated and they felt really uncomfortable for having their under children being there! I just want to give comment so whoever hired the belly dancer, please tell them to be more professional and don't be greedy! read more

Organized her show for 25th wedding anniversary, loved her show, energy she brought into the party. Had a very good time.

Katia is excellent in performing the dance with a smile that lasted forever on her face as long as she performed on the stage!! Her price is very reasonable and she actually can also dance on Bollywood/other native Indian language songs as well. My friends asked her to make it a special night (since it was birthday) by dancing on my fav songs and she did a great job by practicing ahead of time on those songs and entered as a grand surprise in the show!! I would totally recommend her for anyone's party!! She attracted people of all ages including kiddos :) who would want to dance along with her and she would take everyone in with a smile on her face. Very easy to communicate. Katia.. Thanks so much for making my birthday so special with your excellent performance!! You rock!! read more

Awesome performer very professional. I invited Katia 7/23 to perform for my Backyard Summer theme party everyone was surprised as they didn't know I have Katia. She came 15 minutes early, friendly and felt comfortable talking to her. Audience was mesmerized by her beauty, sexiness, dancing skill and friendliness, I was skeptical telling her my invited guest might not participate but I was wrong they all love her and join the dancing. She was teaching us it was so much fun the guys even joined. Thanks...Teresa read more

I arranged a performance by Katia at my fiancé's Moroccan themed 75th birthday party. During our first phone conversation she was not only professional, but sweet and engaging. She suggested that the guest of honor take a look at her several beautiful costumes to select his favorite, a small, but delightful point. She called to confirm the date and time a week beforehand. I just wish I had made it clear she could park in the driveway, because she had to park some distance away, and walk to the house in pouring rain. It was a mark of her consideration and courtesy, however, that she didn't assume it was ok to park in the driveway behind other cars. And she still looked perfectly beautiful and somehow absolutely dry! Her dancing was the hit of the evening! She is classy and completely lovely, and several guests commented that she was the most talented they had ever seen. By the end of her performance, she had everyone--men and women, young and old--out of their seats and dancing with her. I cannot recommend her highly enough! She will be the highlight of your event! read more
