STYLE

The dance techniques I teach involve expressing inner emotions by motion through a series of fine muscle isolations of the torso and hips, combined with a graceful use of arms, head and facial expressions. These movements are taught with the interpretation of intricate music. We discover the concepts of air, time and space while learning travelling steps, turns and spins, dancing to a beautiful rhythmic music.

who

Belly dancing is suited for all people of all ages, ability and ethnic backgrounds.

class

I currently have one class for all levels and work individually with each dancer to make sure they learn the techniques and how to apply those techniques and movements in their individual dance.  My Class is Located in Montgomery County, North Potomac in Maryland.

All levels include a variety of basic, intermediate and advanced movements such as shimmies, hip isolation, undulations, accents, snakes, curve moves for upper and lower body, arm and hand motions, layering, body posture, and the use of air and space. 

By the sixth session, students will learn an easy-to-learn and graceful choreography including the techniques that they have acquired in the class.

when

Currently there is a Monday night class from 7 to 8:30 pm followed by 1 to 2 hours of refreshments and socialization. I also teach private lessons in my home studio on request.
