Al-Bahira Middle Eastern Dance Theater is a Twin Cities-based professional dance troupe dedicated to the performance, education, and creative presentation of dance as a living and ever-evolving art form.

Under the artistic direction of Mirah Ammal, Al-Bahira Dance Theater maintains a performance repertoire that is rooted in authentic regional dance and music forms but ventures into modern theatrical, creative, and fusion works. We specialize in:

  • Raqs as-sharqi ("belly dance")

  • Folkloric dances of the Middle East, Greece, Turkey, North Africa and surrounding areas

  • Belly dance fusion

  • Modern, creative theatrical works

Aalim School of Dance, Al-Bahira's educational partner, provides weekly belly dance classes, plus dance and music workshops to hundreds of students at two locations in the Twin Cities area..
