Ahmed Hussein
Ahmed Hussien has inspired some of the best known Middle Eastern dancers and instructors in NYC and throughout the United States. Ahmed is trained in Classical Ballet and Egyptian Folklore. He is the first Egyptian Dancer to claim NYC as his home ..(Yousry Sharif was to follow him a few years later.)
As a young man Ahmed Hussien studied and graduated from the Higher Institute of Egypt. While in Egypt, Ahmed toured the world with the National Cairo Ballet of which he was principal dancer!
He came to the United States at the age of 18 years. Among some of his credits is choreographer to the hit Broadway show “Oh Brother” while teaching Oriental Dance throughout the US. He has performed at Lincoln Center as well as touring the United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and South America teaching workshops and seminars in Middle Eastern Dance.
Ahmed has owned and operated dance studios in NYC and presently owns and operates dance studios in Florida. He is NDCA Certified and is co-owner of The Virginia State Dancesport Competition.
Ahmed Hussien is well versed in the many forms of Middle Eastern Dance such as classical, folkloric, baladi/sha’abi and much more. He continues to tour not only the United States, but Europe and South America teaching workshops and seminars. Ahmed has been focused on ballroom dancing in the last decade but we are so delighted that he is returning to his roots and his first love which is Egyptian Dance, Raks Sharki or Bellydance !
