We know that not everyone is at the same skill level, so at Unveiled you
have the option of being in a class designed for your ability.
Belly Dance
Level 1: Class covers basic belly dance techniques, and
an introduction to middle eastern rhythms, music, and dance
history. This class must be taken prior to any other classes,
unless approved by the instructor. A typical student will spend
1-3 sessions in the Beginner class.
Level 2: Includes technique and combinations. Finger
cymbals and veils are also used. Continuation of middle eastern
rhythms. While some students will spend 2-4 sessions at this
level, 6-8 sessions is more typical.
Level 3: Includes more complex techniques and combinations.
Balancing props are used, as well as finger cymbals. Students
are invited to join a Level 3 class at the discretion of the
instructor.
Dance Conditioning: Get the most out of your
dancing with an intense conditioning workout paired with more
belly dance practice.
Please wear comfortable, but non-baggy, clothes that are suitable
for dancing. (Baggy clothes make it hard to see the movements.)
Ballet slippers or bare feet are suitable.
Why so many different levels?
At Unveiled, we find students learn better, and feel more relaxed,
if they are in a class with others of similar experience and
ability.
How do I know which class is right for me?
Pretty much, everyone should start with Level 1. Even if you
have experience at another studio, or with another dance style,
it is usually helpful to join the Level 1 class first. Different
studios teach different techniques, and this will give you a
chance to get used to things in a relaxed setting.
But I really think I should be in the level 2 class.
If you feel strongly about this, go ahead and contact Mia and
we can discuss it. |
