This class will introduce the ancient art of belly dance. Every body shape, size, age, and gender are welcome. Belly dance is a low to no-impact form of exercise. It helps strengthen your body’s core (abs and back muscles) and posture as you discover your sense of rhythm (even if you think you don’t have any). It also gives you a feeling of joy. The class will cover the basic moves of belly dance including fast moves like shimmies and hip bumps, and slow moves like hip circles and arm movements. Students will be introduced to Middle Eastern music, the concepts of keeping time, and how to follow a song’s rhythm and melody. Students who have already taken a class will be given advanced moves to practice.(FTDANLIO530) Tuesday evening: 5:30 – 6:30pm
