It's time to kick back, relax, and just have fun!
What will we do in class?
Arrive in the Space (5)
We begin each class by creating space for our dance, in a circle, with a brief moment to center ourselves, connect, and release any tension before we begin!
Warm Up (10) & Basic 12 Belly Dance Foundation Steps (20)
Our warm up will include exercises and movements that will help us increase flexibility, practice balance, tons, and condition. We will ease into Belly Dance technique using the Basic 12 steps that I teach. The beginning of each class will be in the same format to create a comfort level for new students and allow veteran students to improve technique and control.
Combinations & Basic Choreo (10)
Each class, we will breakdown and dance to a short combo from two of my favorite choreographies. I will teach these each class. For new students, this will be taught step-by-step. For existing students and troupe members- enjoy the summer and come dance some oldie but goodie choreos! Although, we will play with the combos so we can "get out of our head" and adding variations so it will be new-to-you as well- I cannot wait! 
Cooldown (10)
Each class will end with a Cooldown including essential oil offering. 

BRING YOUR YOGA MAT!
BRING WATER!
