BEGINNER BELLY DANCE is a fun and fast paced way to learn the quintessential and fundamental movements that make up belly dancing. The main focus style of this class is modern Egyptian, raqs sharqi and fusion. Class begins with a warm up, followed by drills, and a new isolation each class. This is the prerequisite to performance class. Shimmy belts are provided if need be.

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN BELLYDANCE? is a class designed to challenge the body and mind with complex belly dance patterns and movements. This is a fully anerobic core workout while you are learning to dance Egyptian and raqs sharqi styles. Drills, stretching and sweating will be expected. Shimmy belts are provided if need be.
