Come connect with your intuition through Belly DANCE movements
About this Event

Join us for a unique Sacred Flow: Belly Dance Workshop, where movement becomes a gateway to deeper connection, release, and joy.

🧘 the first 30 minutes, We’ll begin with opening circle, a grounding practice  and a space for open sharing — a moment to connect with yourself and set your intentions.

💃Then , through a carefully curated selection of sensual and dynamic music, we’ll move together in a guided flow inspired by  Belly Dance traditions.

🤲Expect moments of dancing in circle, mirroring each other’s energy, and following inspired movement led by the facilitator — creating a space where the body speaks, emotions move, and connection unfolds naturally.

🫁We’ll close in circle, returning to stillness through breath, reflection, and a final gentle sharing moment — leaving you rooted, open, and more in tune with your inner rhythm.

❤️‍🔥This is a space for self-expression, emotional freedom, connection with others, and the celebration of the body.


🌟No Experience Needed

This workshop invites you to explore movement as medecine. Dance as a therapy 

Through guided activities, you’ll have the opportunity to express emotions, connect with others, and experience the joy of movement in a supportive environment.


⚠️Please Note

This is not a technical class in Belly dance. Rather than focusing on specific steps, the workshop offers an opportunity to explore movement as a form of expression and emotional release, emphasizing personal connection, creativity, and community.

✨You are warmly encouraged to participate fully and authentically.

What is Intuitive belly Dance ? 

Intuitive Belly Dance is a transformative practice that blends the expressive movements of traditional belly dance with the freedom and self-awareness of intuitive movement. Unlike structured choreography, this approach encourages dancers to listen deeply to their bodies and emotions, allowing spontaneous movement to emerge in response to inner sensations and feelings.

Rooted in ancient traditions, belly dance has long been recognized for its empowering and healing qualities. When combined with intuitive movement, it becomes a powerful tool for self-exploration and emotional release. This fusion allows individuals to connect with their inner selves, fostering a sense of liberation and authenticity.

Practicing intuitive belly dance can offer numerous benefits, including stress reduction, enhanced body awareness, and emotional healing. By moving without judgment and embracing one's natural rhythms, dancers can experience a profound sense of freedom and connection to their true selves.

Whether you're new to dance or have years of experience, intuitive belly dance invites you to explore movement as a form of personal expression and inner discovery. It's not about perfecting steps but about embracing the joy of movement and the wisdom of your body.

If you're interested in experiencing this practice firsthand, consider joining  my workshops  that focuse on intuitive belly dance. It's an opportunity to reconnect with yourself, express your emotions through movement, and celebrate the unique rhythm of your being.

👤About Your Host: 

Salma is a free-spirited facilitator passionate about creating spaces where dance becomes a medium for self-expression, emotional release, and authentic connection.

Of Moroccan origin, she draws from a rich Oriental cultural background that deeply informs her relationship with movement and expression.

Her journey with dance has been long and intuitive, exploring it both as a personal healing tool and a way to reclaim joy, sensuality, and presence. She has performed in various community settings and took part in a short film project that used dance as a language to raise awareness about the harm caused by sexist education and gender stereotypes.

With a Master's in Gender Studies and a Bachelor's in Human Relations and Spirituality, Salma integrates academic insights into her workshops, emphasizing freedom, personal growth, and the transformative power of acceptance.

She has also received training in theater, which she blends into her facilitation — using roleplay, imagination, and presence as tools for deeper embodiment and group connection.

💃Believing in the medicinal qualities of dance, Salma curates immersive experiences that guide participants on deep, soulful journeys. Her carefully selected playlists and intuitive guidance invite attendees to explore their inner landscapes, fostering a sense of community and shared healing.

💞Deeply valuing genuine human connection, Salma’s greatest joy lies in witnessing individuals embrace their true selves through movement.
