Bellydance for Beginners
Belly dance is a fun and easy way to get fit and learn to love all the ways your body can move. This beginner class will introduce you to the fundamental movements of the dance—shimmies, undulations, and hip work. You’ll also learn about the rhythms and instruments of Egyptian music, so you’ll be ready to hit the dance floor and show off your new skills!
Please bring water and wear comfortable clothes that allow for movement. Wear sneakers or soft-soled shoes.
