No previous dance experience needed

Beginner 2 Belly Dance ~ In this class, we bridge the Beginner and Intermediate levels expanding on basic movements and isolations while introducing hip drop kicks and traveling steps

Intermediate Belly Dance ~ In this class, basic concepts are expanded upon and the dancer’s vocabulary of movement is greatly increased. Core technique skills are refined and combinations become longer and more challenging.  Basic Jazz  skills for showmanship are introduced. Intro to Veil technique, combos, and traveling steps are taught

Advanced Belly Dance ~ Train to be a Professional Belly Dancer, or just look like one! In this class, we continue flexibility and strengthening drills to improve high kicks, splits, backbends, preventing injuries making your shows safe and more exciting. The power of plié, weight change, confidence, musicality, and stage presence! You will learn props, company choreographies, Isis wings, zills (finger cymbals), raks assaya (cane), and sword.

Latin Jazz ~ This class takes elements from the technicality, fluidity and clean lines of jazz and fuses it with the movements and style of International and American Latin Dance. Latin Jazz combines the rhythms of Merengue, Salsa, Mambo, Cha Cha or Samba with Jazz Dance Technique. Bring knee pads and heels

Acro Heels/Go-Go ~ Not to be confused with musical theater or partner dancing in Latin and ballroom styles, “heels” refers to a fusion of different styles performed to popular music in three-inch, four-inch or even higher stilettos. This class takes elements from the technicality, fluidity and clean lines of jazz; the confidence and difficulty of acrobatics; the sensual floorwork inspired by exotic dance; and numerous other styles, including Latin dance, Burlesque, and Go-Go.
