You asked for a low-key day of belly dance fun, and we are delivering!
On May 6th, Arielle will be offering a 2 hr workshop during the day featuring tips and tricks for creating your own interesting belly dance combos to a variety of music selections. In this workshop, you'll learn all the essential techniques you need to be able to create your own dynamic interpretations, and you'll also learn how to categorize the movements to create better recall later on. Not only will this help you improve your choreographing and combo-making skills, but will also help make improvisational dance easier and more fun as we break down all the many ways we can express music through belly dance.
During the evening, join us for a low-key kiki and let your hair down!
A hafla, or kiki, is a relaxed event where men, women and children can come to have a good time, snack and chat with friends old and new, watch family-friendly dance performances by newbies and performers with years of experience, and let it all hang out on the dance floor.
Bring your own beverages and snacks, we'll hang, listen to music and chew the fat until 7pm, when those who have signed up to do so will entertain us with a few dances. After the performances end, we'll push the chairs back and create an open dance and drumming space. Hit the floor and express yourself, bring a drum and bang along, or continue to hang in any of our comfy chill spots!
To attend the hafla or the workshop, you may purchase tickets ahead of time on Ticketleap or the reception desk of Dance Life, or at the door the night of the event.
if you are interested in performing please send us an email to be added to our roster. This is a safe space to try out performing for a first time, or to try a new style, so don't hesitate if you have interest.
