Bastet is known throughout the United States
for her dynamic, double fan dances - a whole-
body, whirling fan technique she began
developing over 9 years ago - that emphasizes
3-dimensional layering of bellydance
movements and fan technique, and making her
a much sought-after instructor. Bastet’s style is
eclectic, drawing from Cabaret, Raqs Sharqi,
Khaleegy, Saiidi, American and Improvisational
Tribal Style (ATS and ITS), as well as modern
Chinese dance and breakdance.
Bastet was the director and principal
choreographer of Mile High Riot!, a neo-
Vaudeville circus show and dance company
based out of Albuquerque, NM. Inspired by
Elizabethan, Victorian, and modern costuming,
steampunk asthetic, can-can stage shows and
Art Nouveau, Bastet created a fantasy world
filled with life-sized wind-up dolls, jugglers,
acrobats, “hoochie coochie” girls, magic, fire-
spinners, and dancers from “far-off lands”.
Bastet is currently based out of Lafayette, IN.
