Class Description
Open BELLY DANCING: Students learn choreography that places
a special emphasis on improvisation, essential to this art form.
Your body will gracefully float across the floor with finger cymbals emphasizing
the beat while a soft veil reveals the beauty within and enhances your
femininity. You will also learn to isolate each muscle, and hypnotic hip
undulations which characterize the very ancient art of bellydance.
This physical, mental, and spiritual experience will get you
into the best of shape, but will uplift your soul as you move to the
breathtaking
rhythm that is the dance of life. For more information or to contact Amira directly,
