Persian Dancing With Shadan - Menlo Park, California

Azin Oshagh

I have been taking Persian dance classes with Shadan for several years now and I am so grateful for the experience. Shadan is not only a graceful and beautiful dancer herself, but she is also an amazing teacher. Her classes are always challenging and fun, and I love that we also incorporate yoga, cardio, and ab strengthening exercises.

The music and choreography are stunning, and I find that the classes challenge a different part of my brain as I work on coordination and rhythm. Shadan is patient and supportive, and she creates a warm and welcoming environment for all of her students.

I highly recommend Shadan as a dance teacher, whether you're a beginner or have more experience. You will not be disappointed!

I've been taking Shadan's Persian dance classes for the past few months and I love them! Shadan has created a small community of friends, who are beyond just an exercise group. She deeply cares about her students, and with a big smile on her face, is always welcoming, which takes the pressure off people like me, who don't have previous dance experiences.

One thing I truly appreciate about her classes is that Shadan goes into the history of the music and dance choreography to provide context, which has been very inspiring for me to learn and understand. Prior to taking these classes, I didn't have the appreciation for classical Persian music, but now I connect with them and find dancing to them calming, fluid, and very much enjoyable.

I highly recommend Shadan's classes, they make you feel so much lighter and happier right after! Thank you Shadan!

I was so fortunate to work with Shadan and her team during my daughter's wedding last year. Their professionalism and beauty of their performance dazzled all my guests. In addition, Shadan suggested to use a traditional Persian music , Saz O Dohol while they were dancing and introducing the newly wedded Bride and Groom to the guests, that addition stool the night. I am very thankful to Shadan's vision and her artistic talent from bottom of my heart. I highly recommend to everyone to hire her if you have an special occasion which you want to be unique, and have a beautiful and memorable event.Moreover I took her dance class last year and while it was a Persian dance class, it was a hard exercise class too, try it once, you will love it. She always welcome everybody with her beautiful smile and her warm character.
