The Yasi Way

Together, let’s unravel the Western constructs that have tangled up Raqs Sharqi.

Yasmina Ramzy’s 43 years of creating choreography, performing, and teaching Raqs Sharqi dance in 70 cities worldwide, including six in the Middle East, plus her 43 years of performing with or directing live Arab musicians, are uniquely integrated with her 47 years of teaching mysticism.

Egyptian & Syrian learning lineage, free of Western constructs

“Your class allows me to express my creativity effortlessly.” Ariana Kantouri

Yasmina’s class has been so incredibly transformative.” Shruti Srinivasan

“I feel challenged and supported at the same time.” Angelica Jordan

“Yasi” was a nickname given to Yasmina almost 20 years ago by a drummer she worked with for a long time. Many people close to Yasmina call her Yasi. It is an intimate expression of Yasmina.
