One of the elements of belly dancing that makes it so beautiful to watch is the circular motions of the movements. This class will guide you through the techniques of four different circular patterns: shoulder rolls, the more challenging Lebanese hip-circles, belly-rolls, and zaar-head. You will also learn the village-shimmy and combine all these elements into a stunning choreographed sequence. Go slowly with these moves, especially the zaar-head — these circular movements are to be done with control and intention.
