You don't have to be perfect, do a solo or balance a sword on your head, these are just a great excuse to dress up and get up a dance together in very relaxed surroundings somewhere different.
We danced at the Hospital last year (see the blog entry from last year below) and it was great fun (if a little hot!). We'll go over dances we've previously done and work on some new, simple routines over the next few weeks too.
If any of you can make it, either to watch or to perform, just let me know in class or email me!

Tribal trials!


Well, I suppose you could say that Tribal Belly Dance is a bit like Marmite - you either love it or you hate it - but it does wonders for toning your upper body, particularly your arms and back, and is great for getting out some healthy aggression after a bad week!


This week we'll start learning a new, and simple, Tribal routine that the Worcester group really loved doing last year. Of course every group is different so we'll tackle it and see what happens!


One of the best things about Tribal Belly Dance / ATS - Fusion is making the costume. It is so completely different to the Oriental or Cabaret style and is a real DIY project. You can make it as detailed or as simple as you want it to be and the more flowers, feathers, studs, shells and makeup the better.


I love Tribal/ATS - Fusion and think that a little diversity in class is a great thing and hope you do too ;-}

Back to normal!

Well, after much disruption to class I am very pleased to announce that we are now back to normal!

Classes are every Friday evening at 6pm in Areley Kings Village Hall and each class still costs just £4.

If you love Belly Dance then come along and spread the word!

We have plenty of performance opportunities coming up over the Summer too so we'll be practising lots of new dances for those who want to get experience performing in a relaxed enivironment in front of friendly audiences.

I'll keep everyone updated with regular news and handy hints, tips and useful contacts and events so everyone can enjoy the fabulous art of Belly Dance as much as I do.
