Level 1 Belly Dance

Level 1 Belly Dance

Starting from day 1 you will learn about proper body alignment for dancing and all the essential dance movements that are the foundation of this beautiful art form.

While belly dance is an Art, you will learn it more from the perspective of fitness and anatomy, which muscles work to create each movement, and how that feels.

Each class at this level we will start with a warm up, work through various movements and steps which involve both isolation and full body movements, put what we learned that class together and dance, then cool down.

You will learn about isolation, ooey-gooey movements, accented movements, shimmies, and basic travelling steps. Your instructor will tell you what the move/step is called, demonstrate it, break it down, then get people to practice. After that, we put those movements into a small combo to practice and depending how participants are progressing your instructor may throw in a thing or two to challenge you a bit further.

We will always review what was learned the class before and move forward until you have a basic repertoire under your belt at which time you may want to discover more.

You are encouraged to ask questions, voice concerns or just make comments. It makes your experience that much better
