BEGINNER’S BELLY DANCE CLASSES

with Ember (Heather)

Thursdays 730-830pm, Oct 5, 12, 19 and 26

It’s time to wiggle those hips!!! But also, it’s time to learn how to safely and rhythmically shimmy, twist, and circle. In this three-week series we’ll focus on the base technique of how to use your muscles to create beautiful movements with your body. Each class will begin with a warmup, then there will be breakdown and practice of a few movements, followed by a short combination, and a cool down.

While the class will be focused on material for newer students, advanced dancers are always welcome to return home to the basics. Additional layers and modifications will be given for advanced dancers. 

We recommend students bring a yoga mat and water.

Heather has been belly dancing since 2004 and began studying with the Salimpour School in 2008. She stumbled on belly dance when looking for yoga classes at a new age bookstore and instantly fell in love. Heather hadn’t quite found her tribe until she found belly dance and then all the pieces suddenly began falling together. She is actively working on new material so classes are always evolving!

Time: 7:30-8:30pm
$22 per session or $80 for the 4 class series

Heather has studied with famous dancers such as Suhaila Salimpour, Jamila Salimpour, Zoe Jakes, Rachel Brice, Mira Betz, Jill Parker and many more.

Heather has performed locally and worldwide including a Beyonce music video, private parties in the Bahamas, and hundreds of other events.
