Defining the levels:

Level 1 = Beginner classes: Learn the basics of belly dance in a relaxing atmosphere and have some fun finding new ways to move your body!

Level 1+ = Beginners and Beyond:Designed for beginners and those who have the basics of belly dance already, this course will challenge you to a low impact workout and get your brain working too!

Level 2 = Intermediate Class: Once you’ve got the basics, come out for a bit of a challenge with layering, more props and even more fun!

Bellywood with Halyma

Level ALL: everyone welcome, dance at your own pace, and have fun getting some great exercise!

Level 1+: we’ll be learning a routine and treating it more like a dance class, but all levels are welcome. There will a chance to perform at the end of the session but it is not a must!

 

“Bellywood“: a fusion of the best of Bollywood dance and Bellydance that focuses on the strong and gentle low impact movements with lots of energy!AS I have been working with Bollywood For Fun over the past few years, I have come to see a potential of amazing joy and high energy dance that could be made available to all fitness levels! By combining that which I personally love from both dance forms, I will be sharing my two loves in a new way for me, and for those who come out to play!Check out more about it online at bellywood.ca
