The Yasi Way of teaching - Body, Heart, & Soul

BODY - Be dynamically grounded. Release effort. Allow room for your heart and soul to manifest physically.

HEART - Passionately express Middle Eastern music. Ignite imagination. Discover the poetry your heart aches to deliver.

SOUL - Who is floating on music and swimming in emotion? Who is this distinctive artist the world has been waiting for? You.

Whether in-person or online, I do not use levels. All students benefit from all classes, perfecting the fundamentals. This allows students to experience the art form organically, much like the nature of the dance at its cultural origin. I have witnessed how this approach cultivates accomplished and authentic dance artists.

“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.
