I`m the founder of Yallar Belly Dance studio, and here is something about my dance classes
There are maximum 15 people in a group
This number insures individual attention to each participant in the class.
There are 2 class options: 60 min and 90 min in Leiceter and North Solihull
60 min for beginners and 60 min for intermediate daners in Coventry.
60 min class is for bellydance technique and combinations. 90 min class has all what 60 min. class has + dance choreography and Stretching, Pilates or Ballet.
This approach will ensure you receive all around dance workout, get toned, fit and energised while having fun
Beginners are welcome
The classes are suitable for BEGINNERS who never danced before and for INTERMEDIATE level dancers, who would like to work on their technique and movement vocabulary.
Raks Sharki (aka Belly Dance) is a dance style where a woman can change her identity and explore different sides of her emotions: from sadness to happiness, from anger to sensitivity-every feeling will find its place in this feminine dance style. Belly Dance improves your heart health, overall muscle strength, balance and coordination, and reduces depression. Belly dancing keeps you young, improves memory, and additionally, whilst the physical movement of the dance helps reduce stress, anxiety, dancing with others also helps us feel more connected and social.
The usual duration is 60-85 minutes and includes warming up, basic moves, dance sequences, choreography, cooling down and stretching. To help you with your journey to your Inner Goddes, we also work on posture, spine, beautiful hands. First 60 minutes is purely Bellydance class. The main focus of this part is to enjoy and to learn with a fun, upbeat atmosphere. Additional time is for basic ballet (to make your body stronger and posture healthier), stretching (to work on your inner muscles and flexibility), pilates or meditation to let go of all day worries and stress.
If you are a beginner who wants to learn how to belly dance, you are in the right place. Our main goal is to stay healthy and enjoy the process of learning. Together with highly professional teacher Yallar you will step by step learn belly dance famous moves such as:
and of course we will work on musicality and rhythm perception.
Bring comfortable gym wear such as leggings or shorts. Please avoid harem pants and long skirts as it prevents the teacher to see how your legs move. Stretchy top or sports bra for the upper body and bare feet, non-slippery socks or ballet shoes-whatever feels more convenient. Please do not wear coin belts for the group classes (we don’t want the teacher to lose her voice, don’t we?). Having a bottle of water is highly recommended.
