Shimmies & Sparkles: Belly Dance Routines
Foundations Class
No experience necessary but always welcome
Shake up your routine with the sensual art of belly dance. For thousands of years women have passed this beautiful art form down from mother to daughter and now it’s your turn. Once you can control your body, you can control your life. So grab your hip scarf and shimmy those beautiful hips on over to this fun filled, strength building class that will put you back in control of you
This beginning belly dance class is designed to teach students the basic skills necessary to develop the strength, posture, muscle awareness, and mind-body connection to learn the art of belly dancing! You will learn foundational movements that include isolations, basic steps, turns, shimmies, arm positions, and an introduction to middle eastern rhythms and how to dance to them! In this class we will also focus on learning routines and choreography to a variety of songs. Each session will cover new routines and choreography!
Specialty Belly Dance Class
Add-on Class
The "Specialty Belly Dance" class series is a multi level topic based class. This means that we take and in depth look at a specific topic in belly dance and apply it to what you already know regardless of your level of dance. Throughout the 8 week class you will strengthen that skill as well as your abilities in belly dance. You also learn how to apply this knowledge to your own improvisational belly dance skills which expands your dance vocabulary creating cleaner and more dynamic improvisational performance.
Each 8 week session we change the topic to learn something completely new. This session we will be exploring...
Sword Balancing!
Come to this class to learn how to belly dance while sword balancing. Don't worry you will learn both in class ;) This class will really help you hone those isolations and force you to be completely in tune with your body and surroundings. A sword is not required but if you have a sword please bring it with you to class. Suitable substitutes will be provided to those who do not have swords available. If you would like to buy a sword I would highly suggest you buy the "Baladay Scimitar" by Kult of Athena. They are well balanced and reasonably priced.
Requirements:
- It is Highly recommended that you complete “Beginning Belly Dance” class or have some previous experiance in belly dance.
Intermediate Belly Dance Classes
Foundations Class
Now that you are in control of your body, let’s build some strength within that control. This intermediate belly dance class will push you beyond the basics and into more challenging, complex body movement. We will continue our zills (finger cymbals) and rhythm training and this time we will add layers and learn more advanced foundational movements. We will have lots of fun with more unique belly dance games, creative conditioning, and combinations that will give both your body and mind a workout.
