Belladonna is a fusion dance artist and innovator from Washington DC. She is the founder and director of Bohemian Bellydance and the Boho Blade sword dancing format and certification program. Belladonna is also a fire performer, yoga instructor and producer of the Raven's Night Soirée. Belladonna is driven by her desire to make creative expression easily available to those who may find it hard to tap into on their own, due to work, family, busy schedules and responsibilities. Her focus is on creating classes, educational programs, music and training that are safe, meaningful, well researched and fun. She uses her dance education and training, as well as her hunger for knowledge and experience in art, design, and energy healing, to help make her programs authentic and one of a kind. The goal of Bohemian Belly Dance is to inspire and cultivate the seeds of enlightenment, healing and self-expression, and self-awareness that can grow from the practice of fusion belly dance. Bohemian Belly Dance aims to provide high-quality instruction and create spaces and opportunities for dancers to find, develop and express their personal truth and creative voice.
The Nightshades are a Bohemian Belly dance company based in Dc and directed by Belladonna. They are inspired by the power of coming together and share a love for deepening their sword skills. Layla May, Cherra and Oona are each enchanting performers on their own and true magic happens when they come together.
