Ukraine’s Got Talent

Alla, on the stage, is if I may say so, one big emotion. Dance is a dance; technique is a technique; but the strategy, tactic, and the

most important “shock” weapon of the beautiful dancer is the feel-ing, the passion she puts into each movement. Despite her youth, Alla is the winner of numerous international and foreign competitions and championships. There is no doubt that all those titles are well deserved.

Alla Kushnir, this girl is known all over Ukraine thanks to the show “Ukraine’s Got Talent”. Finally, many people have known about her in Ukraine because, previously, she had been known only in Meddle East-ern countries. By the way, In the Middle East, people consider the girl as if she was born there because her belly dance style is perfect. There she has another name- Leila. Her family in Ukraine often uses this name. This dancer had a possibility even to dance before the Arab Sheikh. The members of the jury “Ukraine’s Got Talent and Ukrainians also val-ued her technique. As the result she became a finalist of this show.

Nowadays, Alla Kushnir (Leila Kushnir) is finalist and winner of many prestigious competitions. She is “Miss Belly dance of Europe 2008, Berlin” 3rd place winner of LBC (Lebanese Broadcasting corpo-ration), World Belly Dance Championship “Hezzi Ya Nawaim” 2008, winner of Ukrainian Belly Dance Championship 2007 & 2008, 2nd win-ner of Moscow International Belly Dance Championship 2007, etc. n
