Catrice Fairuza
A multi-awarding winning international dancer, choreographer and teacher located in Upstate New York.
Catrice Fairuza has been able to travel the world learning dance from dancers of origin. As well as being a student of all different types of dance, Catrice Fairuza truly enjoys immersing herself in Egypt's many different diverse and beautiful cultures while being respectful of the country’s beliefs, and history.
Teaching since 2018, Catrice Fairuza specializes in the North African Dance known as Egyptian Raqs Sharqi. Classes are open to anyone regardless of color, size, sexual orientation, age, fitness ability, or dance experience. Raqs Sharqi is an amazing way to connect with your body while also learning about new cultures and music.
Classes are fun, upbeat, in a body positive environment where students are encouraged to learn this elegant cultural art form in a way that helps them express their best selves.
Co-owner and Co-head Designer of Mischief Maker Couture Costumes
Alongside Natasha Tripi, Mischief Maker Couture Costumes was started because Catrice and Natasha saw the lack of diversity in the costuming world. The sheer lack of representation for all shapes, sizes and skin tones that were not catered to, or if they were occasionally featured, those differences caused a significant upcharge.
Mischief Maker does not believe that being Plus, Size or having a different skin tone should be seen as a challenge. It is a part of who we are and should be celebrated loudly. Catrice Fairuza is truly living out her dreams when she sees her creations on dancers, brides and anyone who entrusts her to create across the globe.
We at Mischief Maker Couture Design have a passion for creating uniquely beautiful designs that truly speak to the soul of the individual regardless of their color, shape, or size.
Dreams are made to come true; you just have to add a little bit of Mischief.
