May 21, 2026Fantastic Belly Dancer with Great Communication
We hired her for my husband’s 50th birthday and she was amazing! Great communication from the start, very flexible with the music, dance styles, and overall content of the performance. She really listened to what we wanted and created an experience that felt personalized for our party. Her Turkish belly dancing was beautiful and authentic, and she offered so much more as well. Professional, talented, and fun — highly recommend for any special event!

July 1, 2024Great Performance!
Gig Salad made it easy to connect with specialty performers for our event. Within 24 hours I had several qualified firms to pick from, and Senne / Alchemy of Dance was the clear choice. Our guests were wowed by her exciting show and - for me as the organizer - Senne was a delight to deal with… experienced, professional and on top of all the details.

June 28, 2023Wonderful show for a themed Quince
My kiddos Quinceanera was Dungeons and Dragons themed so obviously we needed dragons. My kiddo and all his friends all have a flare for theatre. Sanne put on a beautiful performance that they all loved. Sanne brought along Xavier who was also wonderful and the complimented each others skills well. All in all the Quince was a huge success. The kids and adults loved seeing the artful performances. Sanne also communicated so well! I hadnt done an event like this and she was knowledgeable, and thorough, personable, and kind. Will definitely be recommending to any one looking for a beautiful unique performance!

What to expect
A variety of acts, that can be tailored to the clients needs. A worldly quality that can entertain an audience from any background, beautiful costuming, skillful technique and prop handling. Theatrical, mystical and enchanting. Her style can be performed to many genres of music from American pop music to Spanish styles, Indian and ethnic world music. Eastern and Fusion styles include Sword bellydance, Egyptian bellydance, bellydancing while playing finger cymbals, Indian Fusion, LED wings with bellydance, veil dances, and Sufi whirling.
Fire shows include many props that she has performed over 8 years, with 2 hula hoops (daytime, fire or LED available), staff, poi, fans, crown and more. She uses acrobatic techniques balancing multiple hoops.
A multi-skilled artist who has traveled to study with masters of her crafts all over the world, from India, to California, and has performed for people all over the world, in USA, Europe, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia at many world class private and corporate events, festivals, television and movies. Her show will be sure to amaze your audiences!
The show is curated depending on your request, so according to the costume and prop changes necessary, the time is decided. For example, A fire show with single and double hoops, fire fans, and staff, would go for around 15-20 minutes. An LED and fire fusion bellydance show with fans, crown, LED wings and sword or finger cymbals or no props can continue for 30 minutes or longer. A combination of acts in either of those two options would require a time in between to change costume. Any shorter durations or 5 minute increments throughout an event is also possible.
About
I have traveled the world studying dance from the best teachers all over India and America. I have years of experience in corporate shows, weddings, festivals, concerts, and more. My styles include fusion bellydance, hoop dance, fire dance, bellywood, Indian fusion, and Kalbelia. I can entertain all ages for day or night time events!
Additional booking notes
Stages are always great, but I can perform on grass or other podiums as well.
Speakers are a plus, that can be plugged into my phone or laptop.
Lighting should be dim for fire and LED shows, brighter for bellydance.

Influences and inspiration
Beats Antique has influenced me largely, also Ancient Egyptian and Indian cultures and mysticism. I have studied intensively with Kami Liddle, Sharon Kihara, Mardi Love, Zoe Jakes, (dance craft 1-2), Rachel Brice (8 elements 1), Zola Dubnikova (Sufi and Holistic Temple Dance), and many more teachers. In India I have studied with Traditional Indian Bharatnatyam dancers, and Kalbelia (The dessert serpent dance from Rajasthan) with the original Gypsy family. I grew up in a town of Ringling Brothers Circus which sparked my interest in Circus arts and performing. Also, I grew up playing music which I feel has also led me to dancing in the way that my body is an interpretation of the music and another instrument. Renaissance festivals have also been an influence and the west coast Tribal Fusion bellydance culture that was created with those fairs. I have created World Fusion magic shows for Rennaisance festivals where we take people on a magical journey with dances from all over the world and incorporate magic crystal balls and appearing canes. I also love the big stage and to perform with electronic bands, some of which I have performed with who influenced my dance journey are Karsh Kale, Kaya Project, Dessert Dwellers, Bassnectar. I have also performed on stage for large EDM festivals and many more Psy trance parties. Cirque Du Soleil and other theatrical circuses are also very inspiring.
