TESTIMONIALS
"This was the best local dance show I was fortunate to see in a very long time. Very professional; from all music and lighting cues, the quick changes of performances in genre, style and mood, the fascinating lyrical and themed theatrical presentations. The time just flew by, not a slow second, or mind drifting, the show grabbed my attention and ran with it, never letting go."
-Marion Moat (producer and dancer) on “Bellydance Intersections” produced by Ava and Suzanna
“Beautiful and captivating, I could not take my eyes off her. Ava takes hold of the audience and leaves them wanting more!”
– Karin Ostergren (RAW Seattle Director)
