Belly Dance Basics
Make friends, have fun, and raise your heart rate while learning the ancient and beautiful art of belly
dance. This is a low-impact, body-positive class suitable for most fitness levels. No matter your dance
experience, we will start with the basics and have you dancing combinations and perfecting your
technique in no time. Whether your aim is to eventually perform or just express yourself, this class
will give you the foundations to build on. Come shimmy with us!
Tambourine Belly Dance Choreography
Join us for a delightfully upbeat beginner/intermediate choreography using a tambourine! Set to a celebratory Arabic cover of a well-known pop song, this choreography will hone your basic moves while adding both new moves and layers to your repertoire. No musical experience is required, but you might find a deeper connection with music through dancing to your own beat!
This is a low-impact class suitable for all body types. Dance experience is helpful, but not necessary. Sample tambourines will be available for class use and purchase. Performance opportunities are available and encouraged, but never required.
