There’s a lot of assumptions and judgement that bubble up when anyone mentions addiction or Belly Dancing.
Which is why I've asked Özlem Peron to share about her incredible life that has been shaped so powerfully by addiction and exotic belly dancing.
She was raised in a Muslim, patriarchal culture, and wrestled with eating disorders and drug addiction until her twenties, before drawing on her experience as a dancer to heal herself. 
She’s a nutritionist, a feminine embodiment coach, and Tantric & Sacred feminine yoga teacher that uses Tantric Tao embodiment practices, belly dancing and powerful breathwork to help women to connect with their bodies and access their deepest desires.
