of technique class or by instructor consent. On Monday
nights at Fiesta DanceN' Fitness, Nyla Crystal teaches a classic style
dance class. While you will experience exercise and muscle toning in
this class, the focus is on learning the art form of belly dance. Belly
dance is a general term used for dances of the Middle East. Dances like
ballet, modern, tap, clogging and lyrical are all distinct styles of
Western dance. Similarly, there are a wide variety of unique Middle
Eastern dance styles.
In each session, you will learn a different sub-genre of belly dance including the associated dance movements, history/culture, style hallmarks and a short choreography. During each 50 minute class, the first half of the lesson is devoted to warming up and learning basic steps that will be applied to the choreography taught in the second half of class. Besides learning how to interact with music, the point of learning a choreography is not to test your memory, but to show you how various dance movements can be put together to form a specific belly dance style. Belly dance topics include: Classical
Oriental There will also be opportunities to perform with the belly dance troupe Kanz al Sahara at world dance festivals in Davis, Sacramento and the San Francisco Bay Area!
