SunMoon Yoga with Kalianna

Hatha (literally meaning SunMoon) yoga is an ancient discipline marrying the breath with movement.  This class is specifically designed to strengthen and elongate the muscle groups used in belly dancing.  Come and experience the basic techniques of this balanced practice.  Please wear comfortable clothing. No prior experience with yoga is required.

Time: 11:00am - 12:15pm

Balletfusion with Leighna

Explore your inner butterfly!  Soft and gentle movements can add subtle drama to your dancing.  Using concepts from classical ballet, we will focus on flowing, breathy movement.  Emphasis will be on technique, breathing, posture and body alignment with special attention given to the upper body and hands.  No prior ballet experience is needed, just an open mind!

Time: 12:20pm - 1:35pm

Balancing Baskets with Sahira Zedaré

Join Sahira for a workshop on balancing technique with a style of Egyptian Baladi dance that incorporates round baskets balanced on the head. It's fun, and it's a great way to highlight bellydance isolations! Please bring a round basket. This workshop is for students with bellydance experience.

Time: 2:30pm - 3:45pm

Sassy Tribal with Zahra

Get a little sassy in your style!  Engaging your audience is one of the best ways to take a good performance and make it a great performance.  This workshop will focus on improving your stage presence and performance technique using Tribal Fusion style bellydance.  We will practice some core Tribal fusion technique and choreography and work on incorporating several emotions into the choreography to give your performance that extra spice!

Time: 3:50pm - 5:05pm
