If you have always wanted to learn how to belly dance, but didn't know where to start, this is the class for you. Actually, this class is good for anyone who wants to review, refine and build their technique. The Fall session will focus on the earthy style of the dance's folkloric roots (Baladi), building a grounded base of strong abdominal and hip technique, and learning to feel the music and improvise. It's going to be a lot of fun and all levels including beginners are warmly welcome.
