Owner Rona Bennett
I have been dancing since 1997, having trained with well-regarded professionals like Yousry Sharif, Nourhan, Mahmoud Reda, Ansuya, Shoshonna, Morocco, Margo, Raqia Hassan, Suhalia and Jillina.
I have a BS in Exercise Science and am a Physical Therapy Assistant. I introduced BellyDance fitness classes at UF in 2002 and opened Hip Moves in 2005 to advance BellyDance and fitness instruction in Gainesville and North FL.
