Learn the Magical Art of Belly Dance!
Dates: Wednesday: 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Location: Belly Dance Harem – Sydney, Australia
Originated in the Middle East, Ancient Greece, India and Africa and evolved from rituals of birth and fertility. In the harem it was used for pre-natal and post natal purposes celebrating birth. It is a tremendous form of exercise, working 600 muscles in the body. It is also a vehicle through which many women find and feel a great sense of personal empowerment. Belly Dance exudes the femininity in a woman opening up like a lotus flower, bringing out the Goddess that is within all women. Belly Dance not only provides personal pleasure but also raises self esteem and builds confidence, adding a new zest for life. Jane is not only one of Sydney’s top belly dancers, she’s also one of Sydney’s most experienced bellydance teachers. Jane has won the solo, group and best choreography categories of the National Belly Dance Competition. Jane’s lessons are lots of fun! Jane can help you go from an absolute beginner to an expert bellydancer and beyond!
