BIOGRAPHY

Meaning “touched by God,” the name Bozenka suits this performer, whose gift for the art of bellydancing transcends her Cuban-Czech heritage, as she enthralls audiences and inspires performers throughout the world. As a resident of Miami, Bozenka started her training at The Mid Eastern Dance Exchange in 1998 under the leadership of Tamalyn Dallal. She quickly distinguished herself developing an elegant, classic, earthy and charismatic style that not only earned her the prestigious title, Miss America of the Bellydance 2000, but most recently in July of 2006, she brought home the golden crown from the “Ahlan Wa Sahlan” dance festival in Cairo, Egypt. She was among 150 dancers from all over the world that participated in this contest, and won the festival’s competition event with her undeniably powerful yet uniquely graceful style.  This achievement was even recognized by CNN, which broadcasted the event worldwide with its headline stating, “An American Belly Dancer has taken the Egyptian crown!”

Ever passionate about her work, Bozenka has continued to flourish and hone her craft under the tutelage of world-renowned master teachers. Bozenka has choreographed for Latin pop star Shakira, performed with “Alabina” during their concert tour in Miami Beach, and entertained many celebrities including Sean Connery, Donald Trump, Hugh Hefner, Madonna, and Enrique Iglesias. This year Bozenka has been a belly dancing globe trekker, touring with the popular dance company, the Bellydance Superstars”, as a featured soloist throughout the United States, Canada and Europe.
