Testimonials & Certifications
“I am so grateful I had Ziah during my pregnancy and labor - she presented so much great information and resources to inform the decisions I was going to make about my birthing plan. Ziah was amazing support during the birth and I couldn’t have imagined it without her! She will be your best advocate and create so much comfort in your space.”
“Ziah is an amazing instructor! I am new to Bellydance in the beginners class and she is very knowledgeable and breaks down the moves. I have so much fun and she is very creative with music choice and choreography! I’m excited to continue to learn!”
“I would classify the things I learned in this class as “things I didn’t know I didn’t know, but am so glad that I do now.” Being able to quantify the difference in my pelvic opening as I shifted into various positions was really remarkable to see and will be incredibly useful information as I approach labor. I now know how to assess what positioning might benefit MY PARTICULAR body the most during labor and I’m armed with what I need to figure out how those positions might shift as my body continues to change in the weeks to come. I can’t believe this information isn’t part of standard pregnancy/birth education because it really should be!”
“I participated in Ziah’s Dancing for Birth class and my water broke the moment I got home! Whether you’re 40 weeks or 10, I highly recommend. The class was fun and informative and Ziah is enthusiastic and knowledgeable.”
“You have saved me from so much pain and I’m so grateful! I have been in such a better direction since our session. I’m just so thrilled. Shukran, Merci, Mersi, da’alu e obrigada!!! You turned the rain into sunshine 🌞!!!! Hugging you Ziah!!!”
