Price ~ Price should not be an obstacle to this awesome art and
fitness form. I do this from the heart; not for financial gain.
Class Size & Time ~ Classes are small, comprising no more than
8 students, though my space is as large at either of the nearby studios.
Being an educator, I want to give each student attention. Classes are
scheduled for 1 hour, but frequently last an hour and a half depending
on the spirit of the group.
Warm-up & Workout ~ As I am very much into injury prevention and
welcome every size, shape, and age of student, I always being with a warm
up, and strength conditioning targetted to the muscle groups most crutial
to belly dancing before we cut loose and dance. Because belly dance is
naturally low-impact, I strive to maintain a minimum of 15 additional
minute of continuous aerobic activity during the movement portion of dance
instruction.
Instruction & Style ~ Most would say I teach an improvizational
arabic-fusion style where the focus in on creating your own dance. Truly,
I want my students to experience that joy of artistic expression, beyond
technique or choreographed steps I could teach.
Performance ~ Students are not required to perform under any circumstances,
however, most end up trying it, and find it to be an incredibly empowering
experience. To that end, it is often more comfortable for students to dance their first
performance to choreography, and I offer that as well, but by far the
majority of instruction is technique, movement and musical interpretation.
Musicality ~ Students learn the essential middle eastern rythms and are exposed to a variety of contemporary and classical music
from around the world, as well as specialized attention to local bands should they have the good fortune to dance to live music at a party or performance.
