Bellydance is a rich and empowering art form inspired by Folk Dances of the Middle East, North Africa, Greece & Turkey. This rich cultural heritage has grown and branched out into many styles and interpretations performed all over the world. Bellydance is readily recognized for it's emphasis on isolated movements of the hips and torso. This dance form is known to empower women & has historically been performed by all genders! This art form is body-positive & uniquely inclusive as a dance.

***Bellydance Beginnings***
This class is for the absolute beginner. Attendance is strongly encouraged for each week of the session. It is important to set a good foundation of quality and safe technique & cultural reference before moving on to more advanced movements & combinations.

Make up lessons are encouraged after two sequential absences. Please reach out by email to schedule. $45/hour.
Each week we will cover new movements found in the core movement vocabulary of most genres of bellydance, but with a specific emphasis on the techniques & esthetics of traditional "Raqs Sharqi," "Oryantal Dans" the dances originating in Egypt, Greece, Lebanon & Turkey, which has been my area of study over the last 15 years.
Expect to sweat! Count on having some fun!
Class will begin with a cultural lecture and acknowledgements to the land and people from which these dances originate, including acknowledgment of my lineage of native teachers.
Throughout the session, each lesson includes guidance & conditioning towards strong, healthy posture, a thorough warm up followed by detailed descriptions of movements, movement drills (practice to music,) combinations & a cool-down.
Basic arm positions & movements will be covered along with, foundational hip movements & shimmies, undulations and footwork.
By the end of the session you will be able to safely perform hip lifts & drops, chest lifts & drops, hip/chest slides & circles, downward & upward figure 8s, basic hip shimmies, undulations and basic footwork patterns.
This class is intended to prepare you to safely layer these foundational movements with other isolations and more advanced techniques. Regular weekly attendance ensures advancement to the next class and is highly encouraged.
Yalla! Let's dance!
