Delilah's 4 Week Accelerated Belly Dance Course Mondays:
Beginning and/or Intermediate level
April 28, May 5,12,19 2008
This is a good class for absolute beginners and dancers who have started recently or want to re fresh skills.
We are going to start off with 2 1/2 hours for the first 2 weeks. This is so we can get most of the basic goals and concepts down then the second 2 weeks will be an 1 1/2 hours of practice, perfecting as well as introducing new concepts. If you take this class the hope is you might even feel like joining Delilah in the Solstice Parade!
(Delilah's Parade Class is a separate course on Tues. or Wed. in May).
Great refresher course for returning students!
We will work with finger cymbals, and veil.
Note about the Parade Class:
The parade moves are simple and short choreographies. Because we are out doors and on the street there are many limitations to what we can do. It's an incredible fun, and an excuse to wear a costume, show off and generate belly awareness! However, you do need to know how to hold your frame, travel and feel comfortable with new ways of moving. Come on, you can do it!

Our Shop
We try to make everything you need to learn belly dance available, and of a decent quality for durability and performance. Belly dance music is important and we host a wide selection of music CD's. Instructional DVD's are our specialty and they are like valuable text books to the dance each are 3 hours in length and come with print media as well.
We also have bottled water and a small convenience snack bar in house. We greatly appreciate your patronage. The overhead to run a dance studio in the City of Seattle with wide open space is huge, and all our sales are important to our staying a float.
We thank you for your support.
