At young age, Queenie started taking dance classes with Belgium’s most prominent bellydancer Samyra. After a long search along many different dance styles, Queenie got bitten by the infamous bellydance bug!
She chose to turn her passion into her job. Today she’s a full-time teacher and performer of Middle Eastern dance. Her biggest qualities are her enthusiasm, class and elegance.

She still continues to take classes and workshops to keep on striving to bring her dance style to perfection, and to learn new styles and techniques. She took classes and workshops with Maya Sapera (BE), Naksh-I-Dil (BE), Serkan (BE), Niki Constantinidou (BE), Artemisia (BE), Maya (NL), Kahina (FR), Bozenka (US), Ava Fleming (US), Razia (US/UK), Aziza (CAN), Jillina (US), Orit Maftsir (IS), Sabah (VS), Sonia (VS).

In 2005 en 2007 she appeared in Samyra’s Bellyspotting-shows.

After years of permanent education, Queenie succesfully started performing and teaching workshops. Her career developed as she began teaching weekly classes for dance schools and cultural and educational organisations.
Later she set up her own courses in Roeselare, Tervuren, Aalst and Zaventem, which have proven to be a success as well. Not in the least because of her enthusiasm and her modern approach, while not forgetting the roots of the art form.
