Beginning BellyDance Classes

 I am currently teaching out of my home studio which can accommodate up to 6 students at a time. Beginning Bellydance is taught in six week sessions and class is one hour a week. The cost is $60 per student for the session.

​Bellydance is a fun way to improve your fitness level. Join us as we work on basic technique including several shimmies. This class will offer a foundation in Vintage Oriental (aka American Nightclub) belly dance. The class is appropriate for those who have never belly danced and for those wanting to improve their basic technique. No pre-requisite are required. A hip scarf and finger cymbals are recommended. A Beginner Level Student Manual is emailed to all enrolled students after the first class they attend. Advanced Beginner and Intermediate level students will be offered more challenging options and additional technique to try
