Bellydance Classes – Summer 2014
June 11, 2014
Summer is here, and what better way to make the most of the long sunny days than to take up a bellydance class? Whether you are a novice or a more experienced shimmy-diva, we’re sure that you will find a class to suit your level and objectives.
Here is the timetable for the summer term:
BEGINNERS

This class is aimed at complete beginners who have no experience whatsoever. During the course we will go through some of the fundamental movements found in bellydance, like figure of 8’s, circles, hip drops, shimmies as well as correct posture and various stances. We will also start working on a short, simple, fun choreography.
Early bird price: EUR 40* (If paying via PAYPAL: EUR 42)
Bring a friend along and pay only EUR 75 – that’s EUR 37.50 each (If paying via PAYPAL: EUR 79)

BEGINNERS WITH EXPERIENCE
Every Monday from 18:15 till 19:15, starting 16th June, no class on 7th July, ending 28th July.
