4:30 PM
Having an extensive musculoskeletal anatomy background as a Licensed Massage Therapist, in addition to being a lifelong dancer (ballet, tap, jazz, modern,middle eastern, folkloric and Irish), and a classically trained and certified Pilates mat instructor; Bhrigha developed and trademarked Bellates!TM (Pilates for Bellydancers.) This truly unique class will really improve your dancing! You will learn to connect to your core, tone and strengthen your powerhouse, lengthen and elongate for a lean body, as well as learning proper bellydance body mechanics, stomach isolations, authentic belly rolls, proper breathing techniques, and basic bellydance moves done on a yoga-type mat. This class is challenging & open to all levels and assumes the student can get up and down from mat without assistance. DVD’s will be available for purchase.

My husband and I will also be performing one night as well - waiting for the schedule!

Bright Blessings,
Bhrigha
