About Yohanna

Yohanna was born and raised in Austria and came to the US as a young woman. Throughout extensive travels between the US and Europe for the last 20 years, the Bay Area has become home to her. Yohanna has always harbored a great love for dance, but it was not until she discovered belly dance that it became a true creative outlet.

That was three years ago, when she met Azra, who became her first teacher. Yohanna has since studied with Dunia and Celena continues to be inspired by the vibrant and diverse Bay Area Belly Dance Community. She enjoys the creative freedom of the solo performance as much as the harmonic energies of dancing in a troupe.
