Sonia Ochoa

Sonia Ochoa has built a professional dance career spanning more than twenty-five years and multiple movement traditions. She became internationally recognised as a principal dancer and contributing choreographer with Bellydance Superstars between 2002 and 2010. Her broader training includes ballet, Egyptian dance, flamenco, classical Spanish dance and several other international forms. Rather than treating fusion as a collection of surface-level gestures, Ochoa has spent substantial periods studying the traditions she incorporates. Today she teaches, choreographs and directs projects from Los Angeles while maintaining an international workshop career.
