Around 1993 Nika became interested in the SCA. In the SCA she learned many court dances from the Middle Ages. Not too long after that she was performing with the members of the SCA in Okinawa Japan on stage and at schools. In about 1994 Nika became highly interested in Belly Dance through the Middle ages and the History of the dance and from that moment on loved the dance. Through the love of this dance she explored what she could find through others in the SCA. Upon moving back to the US Nika would dance with friends for the sheer joy of doing the Belly Dance. Through a friend, Nika was introduced to Aziza Said. After a few classes she was asked to perform and hasn't stopped since!!! Nika creates most of her costumes. She owned a jewelry business for about 6 years while located in Japan. Learing to sew Medieval gear from a professional seamstress helps Nika in designing and creating her costumes! In the Future Nika hopes to expand her horizons as far as she can reach through all of the aspects of Middle Eastern Dance. Her Newest Love is Ethnic Dances and Bollywood!
