It’s time for Spring! This spring we’re doing a “Tour de Belly Dance” perfect for new students and returning beginners alike. During his 12-week semester we will work on the building blocks of Beginner Belly Dance and a bunch of regional styles. These styles include Turkish, Egyptian, Persian, and, of course, there always has to be a Drum Solo! With both fast and slow pieces, pop tunes and traditional songs, we will complete at least 7 short choreographies.
WEEKLY CLASS VIDEOS:
During the Beginner Belly Dance semester, one class per week will be recorded and made available to class participants on a

WHY DO ZOOM (OR IN PERSON) CLASSES AND NOT YOUTUBE OR SOMEONE ELSE?
Gina is constantly interacting with and giving feedback and encouragement to dancers. On Zoom, Gina does not teach to the camera. Gina teaches to the individual students who she is watching on her big screen monitor to give specific personal feedback on feet, weight placement, direction, arms, etc.
FAQs:
See FAQ’s page regarding foul weather, make-up classes and other issues.
WHAT TO BRING/WEAR:
See FAQ’s page. Gina will have hip scarves for sale during the first couple of weeks of class!
