My name is Tezrah and I have over 30 years as a multi-cultural Dancer, Choreographer, Musician, Drummer, and Performer.

My love for Egyptian Music and Rhythms opened a path to study Egyptian Drumming on the Doumbek and Def (Frame Drum).

I was fortunate enough to study with some amazing teachers; including years of study with Miranda Rondeau as well as workshops with Layne Redmond and Glen Velez. I was honored to learn and perform Southern Italian drumming with Alessandra Belloni. Additionally, I was a member of the women’s frame drumming group Lipishau, performing throughout Southern California for a number of years.
