Since 2014 Sheila collaborates with Amarah Ates and Mahdy Emara, both from ‘From Cairo With Love’. Sheila’s showteam ‘Shazadi’ has won several awards with their choreographies.

“Mother AMMA, ‘From Cairo With Love’, and my numerous visits to Egypt are my main sources of inspiration for Bellydance. For me personally, Bellydance is all about souplesse and femininity, combined with the right techniques and awareness of body, heart and mind. For more than 15 years now, I enjoy running my Bellydance Center with the help of like-hearted teachers. We are happy to share our love for Bellydance with students from all ages. Our classes and workshops are divers, educational and filled with love and joy!”
