Bellydance Fundamentals "Veil" | Tues 7pm, Auburn
with Rachel, Tuesdays 7pm (55 mins x 10 weeks) from 30 April
Starting with basic moves like shimmies and hip drops, we will build into combinations, plus explore how to dance with a chiffon veil. We've chosen a beautiful, well-known song that spans Arabic, Turkish and Persian cultures. There will be optional performance opportunities.
Choreography helps you understand the dance better by seeing how movements fit to various kinds of music, how they connect together into phrases, and how we can use space. It builds your memory and consolidates your skills. We might even have a performance opportunity down the track. Plus, improve your fitness, co-ordination, elegance, core strength and more, alongside other women who often become good friends by dancing together.
Catch-up options: This course runs a couple more times each week at other studios.
LEVEL: All Welcome. For those with some bellydance experience, your teacher will challenge you to go deeper, to refine your movements and develop finer control and elegance.
Pricing: 10 classes $180 in person. Discounted Zoom option also available on Thursdays ($105: see Online class listings)
LEVEL: All Welcome
Absolute beginners are welcome. Dancers with more experience are also warmly invited to join in: you’ll consolidate, deepen and refine your skills.
Bellydance is fun, but it’s not as easy as it looks: it takes some time for movements to sink into the body. We recommend sticking to Fundamentals classes for at least your first full year - and revisiting it periodically, especially after a long break.
