Description

Welcome to the Luscious Belly Dance Technique for Beginners!

If you have never done belly dance before - this course will get you started.

Belly dance truly attracts women from all walks of life. Not only it's a great way to exercise safely, but it also boosts your self-esteem, helps develop musicality & connects you to like-minded people!

This course focuses of the very basic moves of belly dance and consists of three parts:

- Safety & posture, a warmup, and upper body work (including the belly)

- Hip work (lower body work)

- Belly dance combinations

All the belly dance moves can be divided in three categories: staccato-like moves (pops & locks), flowing moves (circles, rolls etc.) and shimmies. We are going to work with all these types of moves, so be patient and repeat the moves as many times as you need until it sinks into your body.

The main Arabic rhythm we are going to use during this course is baladi (masmoudi saghir). You will hear it in most of the training videos.

I have been teaching and performing belly dance around the world for over 12 years (Europe, Asia, Australia) and feel very passionate about passing the love for the dance to others. My students are generally women (and sometimes man) of all ages (the most senior student is 82!) so safety is my main priority.

My goal is to teach you to gain a better control over your body, to loosen up tight chest and hip area, to help you discover hidden abilities of your body through belly dance!

If you have any questions about the course - please, do not hesitate to contact me via DM.

I hope this course helps you fall in love with belly dance like I do every day, when I teach dozens of my students.

Enjoy :)



Who this course is for:

  • Everyone over the age of 18 who wants to learn about basic bellydance, improve posture, body control and release physical & emotional blockages.
