About Teszia

Teszia Belly Dance Troupe

Teszia Belly Dance Troupe was started at Cornell University in 1996 to provide an outlet for troupe members to join together in celebration of their collective interest in the oriental (belly) dance art form. We encourage troupe members to develop their dance skills by providing instruction and regular practices, as well as performance opportunities, all of which culminate in our annual Spring Shimmy dance show.

Genres of Dance

We perform mainly Egyptian, Turkish, and Cabaret genres, but incorporate Tribal Fusion, Latin, Hip-Hop, Brazilian, Tajik, and Jazz genres as well.

Practice Times

Fall 2007-Saturdays 12-2:00pm, Sundays 1:30-3:00pm
