Belly Dance
If the thought of hectic workouts or
lifting weights sends you running for the biscuit tin, there's an altogether
more relaxing way to get fit which might be just what you are looking
for. Belly dancing is a unique form of fitness for women which is sensuous
and elegant plus great fun into the bargain. A low impact form of exercise,
it's a marvellous way to get your body moving, improving muscle tone,
blood circulation and promoting flexibility.
Belly dance is kind to joints and if practised often enough may help to
ward off osteoporosis. The best thing about belly dance however is the
way it makes women feel about themselves. This timeless woman's dance
fosters self acceptance and creates a positive body image regardless of
age or shape.
Why not join a course or if you can't
make weekly lessons book a workshop. Come
and experience the beauty, power and joy of Raqs Sharqi (Eastern dance).
Young or old, ample or petite, all are welcome.
