Today's class focuses on learning the essentials. Begin with a relaxing full body warm up that prepares you to dance. Then, learn three classic hip moves: the basic Egyptian step, the Turkish figure eight, and M & M’s, as well as the essential upper body move—the chest camel. Feel confident learning how to move your full body in this new dance style. Don't worry about perfecting the moves, just allow your body to go with the music and feel the circular patterns. These nonlinear moves may feel strange at first but will come to feel natural the more you practice. Combine everything you learned today with beautiful dance choreography and inspiring freestyle belly dance to finish! Come back to this class whenever you want to focus on the basics.
No equipment required.
