why we do it
We love bellydancing so much we want to share it with as many people as possible.
There is so much about bellydancing we know you will just love!
The costumes, the friendships, the support & encouragement, the opportunity to be creative ...
... not to mention the dance itself!
Bellydance is a dance for life - from the youngest daughter to the eldest grandmother - it is a dance you can enjoy at any age.
For young girls and women alike, bellydance encourages a healthy, natural body-image and works against common stereotyping and the consumer driven desire for body 'enhancement'.
Bellydance brings us a joyful acceptance of our bodies - just the way they are.
We want every girl and woman we meet to find as much joy in movement as we do!
