Mahdyeh is an Iranian-American and Denver native who began her dancing career under the guidance of Ms. Lia Ridley at MSU Denver in belly dance over 8 years ago. Since then, she has trained under numerous teachers, has taught belly dance at the youth, teen and adult level, and is also a co-founder of the previous Beat Nomads belly dancing troupe who taught and performed across Colorado. 

She began learning classical Persian dance under the guidance of Delsie Khadem-Ghaeini, and has since found a deep connection to her Iranian roots through food, art, song and dance. As a transnational fusion dancer, her belly dance and Persian dance, are both a blend of different sounds and dance styles, that she uses to capture the beauty and vibrancy of each culture she hopes to honor. 

She is an ACE certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor, has completed a Comprehensive Fundamentals in Persian Dance course in the Shahrzad Persian Dance technique, has a certificate from the International Oriental Dance Association in Georgia, and is a certified WERQ dance fitness instructor.
