Perizada - Sorceress of Dance

Perizada has danced all her life. Classical ballet formed her early training and performing experience. She ventured into flamenco, and then finally arrived home in Middle Eastern belly dance, turning professional in that art in 1992. She was drawn to the dances and music of the Roma as part of the process of honoring her own imperatives. Her dance Goddesses, Gods, and Inspirations include Eva Cernik, Dalia Carella, Amaya, Artemis, and Maya Deren.

Perizada has traveled in the Middle East, observing various dance forms. Her distinctive approach to dance is uniquely honed from her life experiences and heritage, and is a deep reflection of her soul. Perizada began exploring hoop dance in 2005. This beautiful, revolving art form blends naturally with dance and creates a completely mesmerizing, unique artistic expression. Sparkly hoops, fire hoops, UV, and LED all contribute to the magic.

At this time Perizada and drummer Emir are concentrating on open-air, public performances that incorporate innovative drumming concepts, Romani dance forms, and fire, LED, and other hoops and props. Appearing as The Force, they seek to expand and transcend previous artistic structures, and invoke Spirit as their ultimate Source. Participants and spectators alike are moved by this energy. To be danced....to be drummed....one with the Force.
