FALL SEMESTER 2024:
It’s time for DANCE! This Fall our theme is “Belly Dance Rhythms”, great for both new and returning students. During this 8-week semester we will explore Beginner Belly Dance through the different rhythms of Middle Eastern music. These include the (best known) Beledi rhythm, the languid Chiftitelli, the earthy Saidi and the mystical Masmoudi. With both fast and slow pieces, pop tunes and traditional songs, we will complete at least 5 short choreographies. You will leave the semester knowing how to Belly Dance, and with performance pieces “under your hip belt”!
WEEKLY CLASS VIDEOS:
During the Beginner Belly Dance semester, one class per week will be recorded and made available to class participants on a
weekly basis. They will be available to you as long as you are enrolled in Beginner Belly Dance with Gina.

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!
