Zerina says: "Dancing has always been my passion"
I especially love Bollywood dance because it is so joyful and energetic but also because it is for everyone, young and old. For me, dance is an expression of life. When people move their bodies and connect with others, they experience a sense of joy and belonging. Assisting people to connect with themselves and their community is the reason I do this work. I feel especially honoured to share my own ancestry through Bollywood dance.”
Zerina started dancing in 2003 with her sister Shamila and formed the Bollywood Sisters. Zerina’s dance training stretches across the globe from South America to South-East Asia, India, the Middle East, the South Pacific and New Zealand. She has facilitated dance both in Australia and overseas, working with a vast range of people. Zerina has trained in classical Indian, African, Latin, Bollywood, belly dance, classical ballet, modern dance, hip hop, jazz, Butoh and South Pacific dance. She is also a trained Yoga Teacher.
