In about 1994 Nika became interested in Belly Dance through the Middle Ages and the history of the dance. From that moment on she fell in love with Belly Dance. Upon moving back to the US Nika would dance with friends for the sheer joy of belly dancing. Through a friend, Nika was introduced to Aziza Said. After a few classes she was asked to perform and hasn't stopped since.

Nika creates most of her costumes. She owned a jewelry business for about 6 years while located in Japan. learning to sew Medieval gear from a professional seamstress helped Nika in designing and creating her costumes.
