Focusing on the Basic 8 - the 8 basic moves every belly dancer should have and know. We will also play with props and work on combos! As part of the class, we will learn a complete choreography, suitable for performing for friends and family!
Rebecca McLaughlin has been dancing for more than 10 years. She teaches a fusion of Classic Cabaret and American Tribal. She has directed several Belly Dance Troupes and is currently the owner of Atomic Shimmy.
The Basic 8 are the dance steps that are distilled to their core level – alone they are the back-bone of any belly dance routine, when combined and modified, they become beautiful dance expressions and a gateway to a myriad of dance styles.

What to wear: Comfortable gym clothes that allow you to move freely are recommended. A close-fitting top is preferred. Also, we recommend bare feet during class – if that is uncomfortable for you, yoga socks, or matt shoes are fine. No street shoes.
