We will put then put them to work and learn a short, vibrant choreography ( video available afterwards for self practice). Large mirrored studio and I provide hip belts. I dim the lights at the end of class for a short free style session at the end of class.

For this November block of classes the spotlight will be on Saiidi style. Hailing from Upper Egypt, this style has a bold earthy feel and a striking rhythm. I will bring along light practice cane and for use in class.

Belly Dance is a great low impact exercise form that improves balance, co-ordination, It It also tones the spine, hips, upper body, and arms and hands. It's also a wonderful release for creative, physical expression. This is a cultural dance which is connected to the wonderful, rich rhythms and melodies from around the Middle East.
