Outstanding!!!

I booked Kahina for my Bohemian Babes Soirée which was a posh picnic is a bell tent. Every step of the way, Kahina has been awesome. Very quick to respond to messages and answering questions. She arrived early and stayed longer that I booked her for. Her costume was stunning and my guests found her performance, lessons and details about the history of belly dancing fascinating. We were so, so impressed. Kahina has it all...beauty, talent, intelligence, a sense of humor and a sweet disposition. It is understandable why she has all five stars!

Here is Kahina's feedback from past gigs:
Kahina was fantastic! She was to her promise on time,and very fun! The extreme heat did not stop her high energy dance as well as her unique performance. Everyone was impressed and thought she did an excellent Job, even under the exteme heat. She was everything and more, she raised the mood level of the party and create great memories for all. I would highly recommend Kahina to anyone, she was a treat and the perfect mood enhancer for my event. -John A, Seaside Heights, NJ

She was absolutely amazing! She arrived ahead of time, came prepared, and performed to the utmost satisfying experience ever. I want to do another event just to book her! -Christian J, Horsham, PA

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! Kahina is absolutely a smash hit. Guests are still sending letters and calling me to complement her performance at the party. Very professional, entertaining and will definately use her services again for future events. Kahina had exceeded all our expectations. -Kathy S, Vineland, NJ

Kahina,s performance was incredible. Our guest of honor completely enjoyed his first belly dance performance. She danced for him, for the crowd and even convinced our birthday boy to dance with her. She kept in touch with me during the week prior, explained her performance and came through with everything she promised. Our DJ was even impressed by her and requested information on how to contact her. She added a special element to our party and we would highly re

About

"Dance is the Hidden Language of the Soul"
Martha Graham

Kahina, of Ukrainian-Egyptian descent, is known for her emotional performances, infectious enthusiasm, engagement with audience, and unique style which will leave your guests speechless. ​

She performers regularly at the live events, birthdays, engagements, weddings, holidays parties, and with over 17 years of dance experience is the most sought performer in the Philadelphia and greater metropolitan area.

Kahina has appeared on the Mind TV program, 21 MLTV, and has performed for the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Rock Star Batio, the Ambassador of Egypt and the Chief of Ghana, and other countless venues.

Kahina will NOT appear at all-male or bachelor parties. Belly dance is a style of Middle Eastern dance adopted by Western cultures, but it is NOT burlesque and/or striptease and Kahina DOES NOT offer that kind of entertainment.

Additional booking notes

Please have an audio system with speakers or DJ available.
