BIO
Anasma is Performance Arts Dancer, Teacher, and Choreographer currently based in New York City and Paris. Drawing from her crossed-training in Bellydance and other forms (Hip Hop, Acting, Miming, Gymnastics, Yoga, Salsa, Wushu, Flamenco, Modern Jazz, Contemporary Simonson technique, African...), Anasma focuses on making Dance meaningful and touching through storytelling , character development and movement. To her, dance is an expression of the self and of the soul that enables each dancer, may they be new to it or professional, to share their deepest emotions and to be in the Now.
Half Tunisian and Vietnamese brought up in Paris, France, Anasma was naturally drawn to mixing art forms to express who she is through performance and teaching. Thus her World Dance fusions (Hip Hop Bellydance Liquid fusion, Wush bellydance, Salsa bellydance…) are a mix between the ethnic and the urban components of her personal background and her present life.
Since 1997, Anasma has performed and taught in dance festivals, prestigious theaters, TV shows, concerts, and toured many times in Europe, North America and Asia. From 2006 to 2009, Anasma worked with the respected company Bellyqueen as one of their principal dancers. Anasma is featured in the following performance DVDs: "Bellydance Experience", "Bellydance NYC: the Ultimate Fusion Experience", "Fantasy Bellydance"and "Fantasy Bellydance: Tarot" as well as in two instructional DVDs: "Bellydance Hip Hop Liquid Fusion"and "Wave Explosion" with Future. She sings alongside Pete List in the album "Songs for Kassar". She is the co-director of the New York Theatrical Bellydance Conference with Ranya Renee and has co-produced the interactive dance show “Ready, steady , dance”. www.anasmadance.com















































Hawaii hip hop culture have pioneers in the art of writing (aerosol art), deejaying, b-boying/b-girling (break dancing), and emceeing. And Hawaii also had beatboxers in the early 1980's influenced by beatboxers Darren Robinson also known as Buffy (R.I.P) of the Fat Boys, Doug E. Fresh (who later influenced the Dougie dance), Biz Markie, the Godfather of Noyze Rahzel and the Human Orchestra Kenny Muhammad. There were Hawaii beatboxers who would perform at Hawaii hip hop jams and events, but the presence of Hawaii beatboxers remained unknown to most on the Hawaiian islands.
In 2004, beatboxer Jason Tom came into the performance scene, influenced by Bay Area California's Asian American beatboxer Elaine Chao after he caught her 2003 television appearance on the Showtime At the Apollo, and then he felt inspired with a vision of perpetuating the art, the fifth element of hip-hop and culture of beatboxing throughout the Hawaiian islands. He started with Oahu and helped to put Hawaii on the map with beatboxing on Kauai, Inner Mongolia, China, Beijing, Shanghai, Zhongshan, Guangdong, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Nyack, and New York City, etc.
