Discover the beauty and grace of Middle Eastern Dance, commonly called Belly Dance. This is more than an exercise class. Belly Dance is an exciting way to improve fitness, tone and flexibility. This class is for beginners and the more experienced students looking to improve the basic techniques and movements.   Previous dance experience is not necessary.   All ages and sizes are welcome.  *Wear comfortable, fitted clothing so your movements can be seen. Hip scarves are encouraged and welcome. If you have zills and a veil, bring them too!  Dancewear and bare feet are typical. Dance shoes are welcome, but no tennis shoes. Comments from past students: "This class was so much fun! And it checked all the boxes- affordable, decent space, convenient, low pressure yet still a challenge to learn a new dance form. Louise was wonderful, such a skilled and natural teacher and dancer. Love her style."  "Louisa’s class is always great! She is so good at the dance, at explaining the movements and at inspiring the students to get better! Love her wit, energy, her friendly and engaging teaching style. Thank you offering this class!" "It is easy to see that Louise loves bellydance and she is willing to share her experiences and learnings with others. "Louise is a professional dancer/teacher who brings joy and fun to the ancient art of the dance."

One night! One dance. A lifetime of fun! An "Arch" and a "Loop" are just two of the patterns that can take you from the sidelines onto the dance floor. A lifetime of fun. Now is a perfect time to try swing dancing!  *Couples only please
