10 WEEK INTRODUCTION TO BELLY DANCE

Shakti belly dance is a sacred space dedicated to every woman to nurture, explore and experience self-control and self-awareness through movement.

During these 10 weeks we will learn the basic movements of oriental dance in a slow but progressive way. Every week will be dedicated to learn one basic movement so that students can progressively integrate all the movements in their body memory.

The focus of these classes will be on learning technique and integrating the basic movements through drills, combinations and improvisations which will also allow you to discover your own unique style and play with different movements, shapes and speeds.

The aim of this course is also to focus more on what is felt that what it is seen. Most of the improvisations will be performed with eyes closed to tune you up with your creative centre of expression. Improvisations are a good way to let our creativity flow but also to get in touch with our emotions and express them in a free and safe way.

This course is for women who wish to gain confidence and learn to express themselves through movement gaining awareness and deepening the connection between body-mind in a safe and non-judgmental environment.

Shakti belly dance is a product born from the fusion of many styles Laura learned over the years, with a root in the mystics of belly dance- or should we call it ‘womb dance’?
Laura’s signature style is fusion and improvisation and she brings a holistic point of view to this magical dance. Her classes aim to help women all over the world to (re)connect with the essence of their femininity, learning together to journey from a place of acceptance and self-love and helping them to get in touch with their own bodies - embracing sensuality and bringing joy through one of the most mystical dances.
