Sahra Saeeda Kent has performed and
taught Egyptian-style Orientale and folkloric dance
on five continents. Originally from the Los Angeles,
CA area, Sahra lived, danced and researched in
Egypt from 1989 to 1995. The "Sahra Show"
performed over 1600 shows in Cairo, Egypt alone,
and included Egyptian musicians, singers, folkloric
dancers and authentic Saidi musicians. The "Sahra
Show" can be seen on "Sahra Saeeda" video/DVD,
"Ahlan, Ahlan" video and "Sahra: Direct from
Cairo"; and heard on the CD's "Sahra Saeeda",
"Music for Egyptian Dance" and "Layali Zaman".
Sahra held the longest continuous contract for a
foreign dancer. Sahra has academic degrees in both
Dance & Cultural Anthropology along with an
M.A. in Dance Ethnology from UCLA. Ms. Kent
approaches Egyptian dance from both movement
study and with a sensitivity to its cultural context.
Her teaching is inspiring, insightful, and
illuminating. She returns to Egypt yearly to
continue her research. Truly one of The Best in this
genre!
