This course is primarily designed for people that are interested in belly dancing with an ecclectic group like The Secret Bellydancers of Muskegon. We do a little bit of everything, so the student can get a taste of everything they may experience in the belly dance journey.
It is set up for easy learning and simple replication of belly dance movement and a fun, unique form of dance. Learning the dance props that are special to belly dance is so fun! These lessons are a unique perspective that you may not get elsewhere. Expression through dance is so freeing! You will be able to take the information from this course into account when you search for a class, instructor or a workshop in your area, or you can use it in your own individual dance practice or choreography at home or with others!
