HOLISTIC BELLY DANCE BOOT CAMP-
For bellydance artists of all levels and beginners!
No previous dance experience required just an open mind and the willingness to have fun and learn a beautiful, new dance form! Bellydance embraces all body types and all ages! Classes are a low-impact/high-energy form of dance , are fun and promote a non-intimidating environment. The breakdowns are thorough, questions in class are encouraged and plenty of encouragement is offered to help you along. Sharing tea in circle and developing our intuition in a safe space are non-dance activities that will also form part of this class.
Bellydance for Body and Soul - technique grounded in but not limited to the Egyptian style. It is very organic and highly applicable to tribal and folkloric styles of bellydance. You will learn strong, earthy hip accents..., shimmering shimmies, juicy undulations, circles and figure eights, and gorgeous veilwork. Whether you seek training as a performer, or bellydance as form of exercise, self-love and comraderie with other dancers, these classes will deliver the goods in a warm, relaxed and open-hearted environment. The decision to learn to bellydance is the greatest gift you can give yourself...get ready to feel great about yourself as you learn to move your body in the most feminine of ways and feel more empowered and alive than you ever have!
HOLISTIC BELLYDANCE (BEYOND THE BASICS) CHOREOGRAPHY CLASSESThis approach to bellydance is a holistic one, as we strive to utilize dance as not only a physical tool for movement and energy flow but also as a means to create a story, inspire deep emotional transformation through the characters we create and engage our spiritual selves with love, purpose and meaning.
Our goal will be to create a new choreography together each term using the above principles to guide us along the way. Meditation, sharing tea in circle and developing our intuition in a safe space are non-dance activities that will also form part of this class.
(I encouraged students interested in this class to first take the basic Bellydancing to gain an understanding of the concepts we are working with in the Holistic Bellydance class; however exceptions may be made in certain cases.)
