Class Descriptions:
Beginners Bellydance is for those who either have never taken a bellydance class before, or still need some practice mastering the basic bellydance movements. This is a slow paced class, perfect for those with no previous dance experience.
Belly-Baile (which means "dance" in Spanish) is a fusion class combining bellydance as well as some salsa and flamenco movements, primarily set to Arabic and Spanish music. This is my own original class, not taught anywhere else!
Bellydance Boot-Camp is a technique class for intermediate level dancers who have a good understanding of the basics, but still need some fine tuning. This class consists of a lot of drills, and working with a movement until it's mastered. Our goal is to perfect one or two movements per class.
Bellydance for Performance is a class for advanced dancers, who are either currently performing, or hoping to perform in the near future. We will work on everything from proper costuming, from headbands to dance shoes, hair and make-up tips for the stage, general stage presence and professionalism at gigs, and how to draw in your audience. Feedback is given at every class. This class is the only one like it in all of Rhode Island! Class size is limited to 6 students, so that each student can get sufficient individual attention.
Beyond Beginners Bellydance is a class for those who have mastered the basic movements, and need more of a challenge. We will use veils and zills in this class- which are available for purchase at the studio. This is a faster paced class.
Hula is the traditional dance of the Hawaiian Islands. In this class, we will learn the basic hula movements, and depending on the abilities of the class, we will try to learn a new choreography every week! This class is great for those who enjoy choreography.
What to wear:
Leggings or dance pants, a crop-top or form fitting t-shirt, dance shoes are best, but bare-feet or socks are fine too.
Hip scarves, bellydance cd's, veils, and finger cymbals are available at the World Dance Wear boutique.
Private classes and professional coaching are available, and are suggested for students who wish to make faster progress than is possible in a class, or for those who need extra help in a specific area. The rate for private lessons and coaching is $50 an hour. |
