Cardio Bellydance
Tone your core and turn some heads as you learn to pop, undulate and shimmy muscles you never even knew you had. Cardio belly dance adds upbeat music and a modern twist to basic moves from the ancient Middle Eastern art form.
As with almost all of our programs, no prior dance experience required – just a willingness to shake what you got!
Small group bellydance instructional parties also make a great activity for women’s events or even bachelorette parties. Call 215-465-2717 to schedule.
Recommended Scarves
Bargain Economy Hungry Hipscarves – These are great for beginners who want something inexpensive to use for practice. However, they are cheap because they are imperfect or overstock products and some coins will fall off almost every time you wear them. Prices range from $5 to $8 depending on the color, plus $2 to $5 shipping per piece. Purchasing more than one scarf sometimes results in lower shipping, but not always.
BellyQueen – Add some extra sparkle with these belts. Prices range from $13 to $20.
Finaday Dangling Coins – Slightly fancier with a double row of coins. Selling at a nice discount right now – $7 apiece – but shipping is almost as much as the scarf.
