Liat Ron (Hebrew: ליאת רון) is an actress,[1] dancer and dance instructor born to an Iraqi Jewish mother and a Russian Jewish father.[2] Reflecting her cultural heritage she began her Middle Eastern dance journey by training with Israel’s prime dancer Elina Pechersky. She later trained with Yousry Sharif at the Egyptian Academy of Oriental Dance, in New York. She has incorporated many of her Middle Eastern dance skills into plays, as she believes it's the ultimate form of dance for women. She often attends social events to dance in both New York City and Tel Aviv.
