Inner Rhythm Belly Dance (6-Week Series)

Join Devorah Daught and celebrate your own unique beauty through the ancient art of belly dance! Belly dance has its roots in folk dances of the Middle East and North Africa where it is traditionally danced when women gather together. This art form offers numerous benefits for body, mind, and spirit. Belly dance is beautiful when performed by dancers of all ages and body types and is wonderful for promoting body-positivity and confidence. The dance offers an outlet for expression, healing, and community building, as well as enjoyable physical exercise, stress relief, and mood boosting. It can also be utilized in a spiritual context to connect with feminine energy. In this 6-week series for women, we will explore the fundamental shapes and movements that form the basis of belly dance. Comfortable workout attire is recommended. A scarf for the hips is also encouraged and a limited number will be available to borrow each class. Full 6-class series: $50 (to be paid at first class) Drop-in: $10 per class October 6-November 10, Fridays from 5:30 to 6:30 pm The series will conclude with a hafla (party) for an opportunity to socialize and use what we have learned to have fun dancing together!
