Fundamentals of Bellydance I- K-Lee- Drop in anytime!
Learn the most basic moves and isolations to become a bellydancer in this entry level beginner class. Tribal students must also start in this class until your instructor places you in tribal. Students will enjoy warm ups and stretches to tone and learn, drills for repetition and combinations for challenge. Class cools down with slower movements and deep yoga type stretching and sometimes meditation moments. Students need not wait for a session to start. The Fundamentals classes are all drop in friendly and I teach in a unique way that is challenging for those who have taken with me for a few weeks by adding more layers, and easy-breezy for newbies to get a grasp of the basic concepts, by keeping it simple for them.
Once I see that any beginner is advancing beyond the class I move them out into a higher level.
So come any Saturday (or Wednesday or Thursday) your heart desires and I look forward to teaching you!  One Hour $13 or $90 for 8 weeks
 

Once a student is moved from Fundamentals into Basic Belly Combos, they may after, be moved into this section of learning. Entry level tribal style is taught in this level of tribal style bellydance, an Americanized version of group bellydance which is danced improvisationally.  This class pulls from fat Chance Bellydance, Gypsy Caravan, Domba as well as other renowned tribal groups' formats. Students may also learn NATIUM World Dance signature moves and combos and will be introduced to finger cymbals. Regular, dedicated attendance is required as this class builds on previous classes' material. If a student misses more than one class per session, they may be asked to retake that session of tribal.
