JANE WASS
A professional dancer and teacher since 2002, who has developed an individual style of dance: rooted in traditional Egyptian dance but with a modern, global aesthetic, sometimes with a hint of spanish and jazz from other dance journeys, and combining a subtle yet fluidly powerful technique along with a deep connection to the music and the emotions.
