Classes in American Style Belly Dance
This is a style of belly dance that is an amalgam of various ethnic styles originating from many countries of the middle east which were adopted and blended into what is known as the American Cabaret Style.
I offer three 8 - 10 week sessions per year
Fall session starts in September
Winter session starts in January
Spring session starts in March/April
All classes meet at Yoga for Health Studio
267 Main Street, Townsend, MA

What you will need for class: Wear clothing that you feel comfortable moving in such as work-out or yoga wear. We dance in bare feet - or you may wear socks or dance slippers if you prefer. No street shoes in the studio. Bring a hip sash if you have one, but don't worry if you don't - I have plenty to borrow for use in class!
Advanced beginners will need a set of zills (finger cymbals)
