About AMIRA DANCE PRODUCTIONS A LTD
Our dance studio was founded by Alice Castilow, who also co-founded the Metropolitan Ballet of Wichita. Castilow, who took the stage name Amira, was among the first dance instructors in Wichita to offer belly dance. She studied Middle Eastern dance in New York City, with the famed choreographer and dance troupe founder, Ibrahim "Bobby" Farrah, who taught many of America's early belly dancers in the 1970s.She also embraced other forms of dance, including flamenco, folkloric and Polynesian, teaching them to her students as well.
Since her death in 2004, the studio ownership has transitioned to former students who have grown the number of staff, students and class offerings.
