Wednesdays, October 7th-28th
6:15-7:30 PM. All Levels. We will warm up and go into veil and fan veil technique. We will slowly breakdown the foundation of these beautiful props then layer them over dance combinations to create depth and expression, not just a series of ‘tricks’. We will then continue to explore Fat Chance Belly Dance Style through Flock of Bird Drills and finally end wit some deep stretches.
*Bring your water, your questions, and your vibe.
*Some loaners if people need.
7:30-8:45 PM. Baddies Class. This class will deep dive into Serpentine Style and how we really create the foundation for this modern ‘classical’ style of Bellydance. These 'foundations' are often considered the least fun but I feel are the MOST essential because if you cannot properly 'tune' your instrument, it will not do what you need it to. While cabaret is rooted in tradition and fun, Serpentine is rooted in the precision of muscle control gained after years of study in yoga, pilates, and biomechanics. This study applied to bellydance technique along with some infusions including Flamenco and Indian dance technique creates this delicious style. If you try to skip the 'boring' parts, you will not gain the skill and control needed to make this style look incredible. Now, having given my rant, I am thrilled to announce our very own Emily (resident PTA) will assist me by starting the 1st 30 minutes of class with PT based exercises to prepare you for belly isolations, backbends, and floor work. Please be on time so you do not hurt yourself. We will then continue into slow and fast drills, Serpentine Hip drop, 3/4 shimmies, and level changes. We will dance combinations for transition and fluidity but choreography will not be taught until November. You must take the first class to take the second unless you are an Elementals Principal dancer or taking private lessons and with instructor approval.
*Please bring water, yoga mat, and knee pads.
