BEGINNER'S
BELLY DANCE 1 & 2
You will learn the Fundamental technique of Middle Eastern Belly
Dance : body isolations, hip slides, drops, lifts, twists, circles,
and figure eights along with belly rolls, snake-arms, camels,
shimmies, and some basic traveling steps. Simple Cominations will
be added to begin to put the dance movements together. Veil is
taught in alternate classes; finger cymbals are taught in alternate
sessions. No previous experience necessary. In all her classes,
students are exposed to a wide range of music: Popular and classic
Middle Eastern, Turksh, Greek, North African, and American Bellydance.
Level 2 students will gain more mastery over these movements that
will allow them to move towards more complex movements and combinations.
