What Australian belly dance site would be complete without Terezka?
This video shows her in action in class at her Sydney belly dance studio.
Visit her website, Terezka's World of Danse Orientale
It's worth joining her mailing list to be notified of her excellent annual ball and regular overseas belly dance trips.

I all the teachers I have encounted I can honestly say that Terezka is the best teacher of this ancient art that I have come across. She is passionate about bellydance and it shows when performs & teaches.
I found that I gained a better undersyanding of dance thanks to Terezka discussing the meaning & instruments behind the music she uses at each class. I also found her that by encouraging her students to ‘dress’ for class allowed me to fully immerse myself into the dance.
I found her very honest & encouraging whenever I seaked her advise on my own dancing & choreography.
She places importance on technique in her classes, which I have found is sadly lacking by some teachers.
I only wish I didn’t have to leave Sydney, as I really do miss her Tuesday classes

I’ve recently started Terezka’s classes and I agree, Kate, it is refreshing to find a teacher who places importance on technique. I don’t know why some teachers don’t - perhaps they think amateur dancers just want to have fun, and fear they will lose students if they make them drill technique? Personally I think the opposite is true.
