Helena Vlahos

I have taken lessons from many instructors in the Valley as well as attended many workshops across the country. I must say, Helena is one of the best and I still consider myself one of her ‘students’. She has a vast amount of knowledge and experience that is so rare to find in others. Her teaching style is from experience, and that really comes across. Others I have studied with were interested in perfecting technique and incorporating other styles such as ballet (I am not a ballerina, I am a bellydancer!). Helena teaches you proper technique and style, but also teaches you to dance from your heart and your soul. Not many do that and it wasn’t until I trained with her, did I learn how to EXPRESS myself, instead of just going through the motions.
Not only is she a fabulous teacher, she is a LEGEND! I have been with her where people were literally waiting for the opportunity just to speak with and learn from her. Some even famous international professionals who were in awe of Helena. That really says something and I believe that we are so lucky to have her here in the Valley as a resource.
If you are looking to learn from a master a legend and a truly phenomenal person, train with Helena. You will be so glad you did!

Helena Vlahos = The Valley’s Goddess of Belly Dance!
The core of my dance technique and career as a professional belly dancer was built from the Instruction I received from Helena Vlahos.
Many of Helena’s former students have gone on to become award winning performers, teachers, & choreographers. This reflects how well she prepares her students for the real world of Belly Dance!
Thank you Helena!
