Be prepared to move your hips, work your core, expend some energy and 'glisten' from this workout that will allow you to practice bellydance steps, combinations and technique in addition to Yoga inspired movements to enhance flexibility and breath for an effective Core Workout. Shimmy and groove with bellydance intervals of fast and slow rhythms that are introduced and repeated at various tempos and intensity to create an exotic, fun, challenging workout and/or choreography sequences that heat up the room.
For some, Bellydance is a deeply meaningful artistic and spiritual path that leads toward self-discovery and self actualization while sharing commonalities with Yoga such as breath, body awareness and mindfulness (being present in the moment). Our signature class is designed to enhance your fitness routine with fun, functional, invigorating and effective movements based on traditional middle eastern dance, exercise guidelines and biomechanical safety to increase flexibility and muscular balance; strengthen the core and relieve spinal pressure for stable posture; improve coordination; develop a more toned/defined midsection and a stronger, "pain-free" back; improve/maintain cardiovascular health and burn calories!
Classes integrate the concept of fluidity, grace, breath, core strength, flexibility, and muscular endurance to experience a complimentary fusion for an enjoyable mind/body class for a refreshing total body workout suitable for all levels - unique, fun and will help you reduce stress in a different way with movements that will open and stretch the body. No dance experience necessary. Although low-impact workouts, they are effective workouts that will burn calories with high and low intervals of dance, isolations and exercise intensity. All shapes, sizes and activity levels welcome. Bellydance hip scarves are available for purchase at most classes and events. Refer to schedule for times, locations and availability for private lessons.
