Improvisational Tribal Style- Levels One and Two- these classes are not open to beginners.

Tribal One, Session One- taking names now

NO CLASSES ON FEB 27

Private lessons also available. See below

Private lessons are lessons taught to one or two people at one time where more individualized attention is desired or when our schedule doesnt work with yours. Private lesson quotes are based on length and frequency of lesson, location of lesson, distance and time to travel. Prices can be negotiated if a block of lessons is paid for in full. Group lessons are also available for groups of students who would like assistance with choreography, performance prep, or a lesson party.

Fundamentals of Bellydance I- K-Lee- Drop in anytime!
Learn the most basic moves and isolations in this entry level beginner class. Students will enjoy warm ups and stretches to tone and firm, drills for repetition and combinations for challenge. Class cools down with slower movements and 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 some time as well as can be 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.

Tribal Style Bellydance Level 1, 2, 3 and 4, Sessions: I, II, III, IV, V- K-Lee- No drop ins

Once a student is ready to move from Fundamentals into a more challenging class they will either be invited to join tribal classes or sent to a higher level of training. Entry level tribal style bellydance is taught in level one, getting progressively more challenging as a student moves up the levels. Moving up the levels students will learn to play finger cymbals as well as more challenging combinations and group dance formations. Tribal style is an Americanized version of bellydance which is danced in a group and is improvisational.  My class utilizes styles of tribal 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 become proficient in 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.

$100 for 8 weeks, no drop ins

Introduction to Bellydancing with Props

So you have the basics of bellydance down and crave a little something more? Maybe you'd like to learn various shimmies- while balancing a basket or candle tray on your head. Perhaps some fancy veil work would spice things up. How about some bellydance combination with specific zils patterns to match and enhance the moves? Or there's the spicy flair of dancing with a swirling, swishing tribal skirt to add some panache. Each week or two we will move to a new prop and touch on some basic dancing with props ideas. Students may need to provide certain props, instructor may have some loaners, studio may have some for sale. Instructor will advise each week which props will be used in the following week. 

VavaVoom! Tease-a-ret Dance

Apply to Mizz Lucy's School for Wayward Girls where moves and combinations taught borrow from a variety of dance styles like those of showgirls, those in saucy cabarets, as well as styles from classic burlesque. Sprinkle some modern dance and VaVaVoom!

Mizz Lucy even sends her Wayward Grrrls off to "charm school" where we develop personas for stage, create frisky lil stage names and of course tell manners to take a hike as we build up the sass in class!

Whether you want to reawaken the lost vamp inside, learn some sexy moves for private dances or run away to join the show, Mizz Lucy is here to take you under her feathered and manicured wing, to teach you how to embrace your very own VaVaVoom!

The INTRO LEVEL class is perfect for those who yearn to learn the art of the tease including (and not limited to) working the boa, losing your gloves, removing the bra, peeling the panties, working the stockings, what to do with your hat, basic dance steps and costuming how to info.

LEVEL ONE Classes are open to those with a little dance experience or those who have successfully completed INTRO LEVEL.In this level we add dance steps, stage presence and choreography.

LEVEL TWO classes are only for those continuing students that Lucy "promotes" into the "Sophomore" level.This is for pro-wannabes and student performers.

All shapes and sizes are welcome as long as you can dance in heels, feel ok wearing a certain degree of revealing costuming and can easily squat and stand without injury.  One of the many reasons burlesque is loved is that it embraces various body types and encourages a little jiggle in the wiggle, a bump in the rump and more bounce to the ounce. 

Students should wear comfy form-fitted exercise/dance attire, bare feet, and bring a feather boa, over the elbow gloves and a bra to remove (it is worn over clothes in case you are shy in class).
Props can be purchased at the studio,  borrowed from Mizz Lucy or students may bring their own.

* This class sells out every session so pre-registration is required to secure your spot. A waiting list is in place in the event a student drops out mid-session. THIS CLASS IS NON-REFUNDABLE!
