Belly Dancing

We believe dance will reveal the mysteries that the body conceals.

Sculpt and tone your core muscles by working your hips and stomach. A workout that keeps your body constantly moving, improving hip flexibility and rotation, whilst elevating your heart rate. Belly dancing is about isolating torso movements from limb movements. Western dance often focuses on the technique of arms and legs. On the other hand, belly dancing focuses on the movement of the spine, abdomen, upper body, and hips.  Given the engagement of every muscle, belly dancing can improve flexibility. It has known to aid the spine, as well as building upper body muscular strength.
