Description

Belly Dance....ever wonder what all the craze of belly dance is about? I will walk you through origins of belly dance, American styles of belly dance, what to expect in a class, differences between a group class and online class, and how to find the right class for you. There are many "pop-up" belly dancing instructors out there. Do you know how to spot them? 

Join the years of belly dancing students who have studied with me since 2002, who just like you, were either wondering where to begin, what belly dance is all about, and where to find good resources. Find the right belly dance instructor and class for you by learning where to find useful information and creating your own personal belly dance resource guide. Gain confidence in your critical decision of who to study under. 

Note: In this course you will also get downloadable resources guides as well as the PDF version of the PowerPoint slides.
