Our Dancers
 

Leize's love of dance began as a child performing in ballet, tap and jazz recitals. Thirty years later she found Barika Tribal Belly Dance and an absolute passion. Continuing her education in ATS with Trillium and, thus far, attending invaluable workshops conducted by Onca of Baraka Mundi, Rachel Brice, Amy Sigil Unmata and Tribe Marrakech has greatly improved her dance and performance confidence and abilities.

Current dance certifications:
2008 - Gypsy Caravan Collective Soul - Level 1
2006 - Amaya's Wise Woman Retreat Gitano Certification

Her strongest draws to Tribal Style Belly Dance? Developing the dance on the spur of the moment and sharing the unspoken connection with her beautiful Rakhshanda troupe mate Athena. She would not be the dancer she is today without the unconditional love and support of her husband of almost 20 years, Kevin, with whom she lives along with her sweet mastiff, Graham.
