About this event

Class Description

Health Benefits: Build core strength, improve posture, aids in digestion, increases balance, increases circulation, helps relieve stress, excellent brain exercise for focus, memory, creativity and coordination. The fluidity of many movements incorporated may also benefit osteoporosis, arthritis, back and circulatory issues.

Spiritual Benefits: Bellydance goes even further by also integrating the liberating notion that the female and her sexuality are deeply healthy, powerful and significant.

Suddenly the body, no matter its shape or size becomes cherished in preparation for connection. It is adorned with beautiful costuming that highlights the dancer’s unique and feminine design. It moves with confidence and grace and says..

I am divine.
