One of the core components of belly dancing is incorporating beautiful hip movements. This class breaks down two classic hip isolations, the hip piston and the hip pop. You will also learn the 1, 2, 3, hop and a classic upper body move, snake arms. Take time for your body to integrate these isolations, using your core for control. You can always pause the class to practice a new move on your own, or repeat a section at any time. The class culminates in a sensual hip-focused belly dancing sequence which will leave you feeling liberated.
