✨FUSION BELLYDANCE CLASS✨ ~ 8 Week Series
October 14th - December 9th | Tuesdays 7-9p
Our Theme: Emotional Intelligence
A Datura-Style Fusion Bellydance Series with Zills (Finger Cymbals)

This October, join us for a transformative 8-week fusion bellydance series where we'll explore the rich landscape of our inner world. "Emotional Intelligence" is an invitation to deepen your awareness of self and others through movement. Guided by Jordan Sun, this series incorporates the joyful and intricate art of playing finger cymbals, or zills, as a tool to enhance our emotional expression and rhythmic connection.

* Option 1: The first hour (7 PM - 8 PM) is a welcoming space for all levels. We will ground our practice by exploring the fundamentals of fusion bellydance, including postural alignment, dynamic conditioning, and focused drilling of isolations. We'll introduce the basics of playing zills, using them as a percussive extension of our movements and a pathway to new rhythmic understanding. This is a perfect option if you're new to zills or bellydance, or simply want to deepen your personal practice without a performance commitment. ($130)

* Option 2: For those ready to perform, both hours (7 PM - 9 PM) are required. In the second hour (8 PM - 9 PM), we'll delve into a captivating choreography, weaving our theme into our performance project. Using our zills, we'll learn to listen, respond, and create a shared rhythmic language, strengthening our collective emotional connection. This segment is designed for dancers with a year prior bellydance experience who feel called to embody the full performance piece. ($240)

Join us to cultivate a deeper connection to yourself and your community. No prior zill experience is necessary! Bring your own Zills or you can purchase a set in class for $30.
