CLASS DESCRIPTION:
This 60 minute class is designed for everyone and anyone who has never taken dance before. We always start with a short warm-up & stretch session, warming up prior to any physical activity does a number of beneficial things but primarily its main purpose is to prepare the body and mind for more strenuous activity. You will learn the art of belly dance as an alternative exercise, instead of the traditional exercise moves, to experience a full cardio workout. Students will learn the proper posture. You will learn step by step the basic moves of belly dance commonly seen in belly dancing: hip circles, hip & shoulder shimmies, hip drop – kick, figure-8’s, snake arms & undulation. All moves are broken down in to easy to follow steps and are repeated in each class. Once students know the basic steps we will learn how to enhance each move & develop speed and expression. In the end of each class we will dance to a routine combining the movements you’ve learned. Once you have mastered the basic moves you will learn full dance routines with advanced move variation, step combinations and veil work.

Wear the right clothes. Belly dancing clothing is suggested, but anything loose and comfortable will do when you're just getting started. Belly dancing is performed barefooted. Trim your midsection, thighs and hips while learning to shimmy. Belly dancing is non-competitive and stress-free. Go at your own pace and stop if you feel tired. Get out what you put in. Depending on the length and frequency of your sessions you can get a body-shaping workout that firms and tones while strengthening muscles. Because belly dancing is low-impact, chance of injury is rare so dancers of all ages and health levels can reap the benefits. Improve your posture and balance through belly dancing by building abs and strengthening back muscles. Learning to control abdominal muscles takes practice and many strengthening exercises can be done anywhere, anytime.
