Beginning Belly Dance
Discover the joyful art of belly dance with Jenna! We will explore many basic techniques that are used to some variation throughout the diverse styles of belly dance. Learn a bit of history, the correct posture, and how to listen to the music with your body. We will finish off with basic combos that you can take with you on your journey with this ancient dance. This workshop is for all skill levels—whether completely new or would just like a refresher. Handouts are provided that detail what we learned, as well as information on how to find instructors and workshops in your area.
