We teach the ART of Belly Dance!

Private classes can be a wonderful experience. You are learning a dance, an art, and undergoing self exploration and personal growth. As many dancers will a test to; they began belly dance as a calling from an ancient feminine wordless place. Images, feelings and stereotypes accompany it, yet also something deeper. What they find is that the art and craft helps them express themselves in every facet of their life more fully. Everything shifts and changes. This dance is an asset to girls and women of all walks ages, sizes and nationalities. An ancient way of feminine knowing that vivifies our lives.

Private instruction cost a little less than most therapy and massage appointments. They are more costly than group classes but much more personalized and students often make faster progress.
