Belly Dance
Belly dance refers to a feminine dance form originating in Egypt and performed all through the Middle East.
This dance is characterised by isolated movements of different parts of the body, especially the hips.
This course offers a significant variety of styles: Raqs Sharqi, Baladi, Saidi, North African Folk dance.
It focuses on learning technique, understanding rhythms and facilitating expressiveness.
Gradually, the dancer becomes "one with the music" and the whole knowledge is reflected in the body movements.
