Belly Dancing movement fundamentals  Move from rigidity to fluidity
Do you desire to make your movements less rigid and more fluid, relaxed and precise? In this slower-paced class we will dive deep into the fundamentals, focusing on improving the quality of our movements and exploring how to make our movements truly smooth and effortless. We will take one foundational belly dance movement (hip drops, hip circles, undulations, shimmies, etc), walk you through how to find the muscles involved, how to refine the precision of the movement and explore different variations of the movement. The first half of the class will focus on slow floor exercises designed to improve the quality and precision of your movement while finding greater ease and lightness. In the second half of the class, we will practice different rhythms from slow to fast and explore other variations in how the movement is performed. Please bring a yoga mat!

*NEW* Tunisian Dance Class

Wiem Hassani grew up in Tunisia and started dancing at the age of 12, and created choreographies in high school until graduation.  Even though she a Computer Science degree and became a famous fashion designer, she always came back to dancing. Her love of dancing a desire to polish her technique got her the opportunity to be trained by the artist Haifa Bouzouita who gave her the chance to start teaching classes. Following her heart she recently moved to California and was honored to join the Belly Dance! Studio in Walnut Creek to share her passion for Amazigh culture. She aims to use her abilities for good, and hopes to empower others not to give up on themselves!
