learn to dance step by step

from absolute beginner to performance level should you wish

 

This beautiful improvisational style is a modern form of belly dance, inspired by the folkloric dances of the Middle East, North Africa and India with further inspiration from Spanish flamenco, which weaves together mysteriously slow sensual movements with earthy energetic steps - the effect is stunning with no need to remember choreography

​

Instead the dancers learn to lead and follow, using a ‘language’ of steps, cues and gestures to ‘talk’ to each other

and tell each other what will happen, creating an inclusive collaborative team of dancers all working as one

​

It’s fun, sociable, a great way to get fit and can help improve core stability, self-esteem and confidence no matter

your age, shape or size – it really is a workout for mind, body and soul​

 

Classes happen live in real-time so you can ask questions and everyone is able to interact and dance with each other.

I didn't want to offer the typical pre-recorded lesson uploaded to the internet where people just sign up to

watch in isolation because that defeats the object of this group dance. I couldn't bear the thought of teaching to a camera but wanted to be able to offer classes that are as 'real' as possible.

​

My students and I have been on a steep learning curve but we are now able to work in small interactive groups recreating our dance formations and chorus and have even managed virtual performance - no it's not the same as the real thing but under the circumstances we're 'absobloodylutely' loving it

​

Whilst current Covid restrictions vary from country to country we are enjoying the security

that our online classes provide giving us continuity, stability, togetherness and a unifying experience.

With no geographic barriers we really can dance with anyone anywhere in the world.

As we start going back to dancing in the flesh 

rest assured I will continue my online classes in the future
