Dondi Simone Dahlin grew up in the exciting world of healing, music, dance, drama and the arts. She was raised between San Diego, California and Ashland, Oregon while also traveling to all corners of the globe. From her earliest memories she felt she was destined to be a film actress and worked her way up the ladder with roles in community theatre from the age of six and Speech/Dramatic competitions throughout college. She won many awards including, "Outstanding Speaker in the Nation" which featured her skills as a public speaker. But, when she moved to Hollywood at 20 years old she quickly found that the plastic bubble of show business was slowly destroying her soul. She had a couple of years in South Florida that brought success with over 100 National and International commercials and roles in television and music videos. She also became a member of the prestigious Screen Actors Guild.

However, all the while that Dondi was booking acting roles she was becoming a well known Middle Eastern Dancer and it was luring her away from the harsh realities of the acting world. This journey had started when she was just 4 years old. When Dondi was in Kindergarten she started training in Polynesian Dance and experienced some of her first professional contracts in The Cook Islands with her sister, Titanya. At 12 Dondi started studying Middle Eastern Dance and in 1991 was the exclusive Belly Dancer chosen to dance for Omar Sharif on his 60th birthday. In the 1990's Dondi continued to dance around the United States, Europe, Australia and Mexico. In 1997 she booked her first dance contract in the Middle East and since then has danced in Dubai, Turkey, India, Tunisia, Lebanon, Africa, Greece, Egypt, Jordan, Iceland, India, Spain, Africa and all over Europe. She is often requested to dance for celebrities including, Peter Fonda, Dwight Yokam, and Jimmy Buffet and has danced in concert with Egyptian pop idol, Amr Diab. In 2000 Dondi won,"Belly Dancer of the Universe" and in 2002, "Wiggles of the West" with her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe as a Belly Dancer. Hollywood producer, Miles Copeland chose Dondi to join the "Belly Dance Superstars" in 2004 and she was a part of the company for two years while touring with them throughout America, Canada, Spain and Europe.

As a famous Middle Eastern Dancer, Dondi has graced many CD and magazine covers. Nationally, she was nominated for, "Best Kept Secret, 2001" and "Cabaret Dancer of the Year, 2003." She is featured in over 10 Belly Dance videos along with, "Belly Dance Superstars~ Live in Paris" and, "Belly Dance with Dondi" from Saroyan productions. San Diego Magazine named Dondi "One of the 50 best things about San Diego."

Dondi teaches Lebanese, Egyptian, Turkish, Moorish and Folkloric styles of Belly Dance. She leads week-long annual retreats with Titanya at, "Feathered Pipe Ranch" in Montana and OMEGA Institute in New York. Their most popular workshop is their five-day intensive,

"Belly Dance and The Five Elements." In this workshop they explore stories, myths, history, movement, dance, relationships and self-discovery through Middle Eastern Dance and what they learned from their Mom while growing up in The Chinese Five Elements.

When in her home town of San Diego, Dondi works as a tour guide throughout Southern California and Baja, Mexico. She lives in a 1904 historic home of which she personally fought for two years to have added to the Historical Registry in San Diego. Her house is #877 and is the only "National Folk House" on the register. May 23, 2009 became the proud mama of Tiernan Ray Devenyns, 8lbs 3oz, 22 inches - mother & son both extremely happy.
