Bellyup is a family friendly group and
school that shares the joy of belly dance with women of all ages. It's a
modern fusion of folkloric and cabaret styles which incorporates the
inherent joy of the dance and echoes back to its very origins where women
gathered to share and revel in each other's company. Daughters, mothers,
grandmothers, family, friends dancing as one with laughter and fun! It's a
joyous burst of colour and movement.
We encourage women to be comfortable
with themselves and their bodies by providing a forum where they can
uniquely express their inner passions through the wonder of belly dance.
The Bellyup school teaches the dance
through choreographies. Each term of the syllabus building on the knowledge
and skills gained in the previous dance. This approach uses the techniques
handed down from the origins of the dance where in small communities you
learned the dance steps, rhythms, attitudes and history from your mothers,
grandmothers, aunts, sisters and members of the extended community. Through
this approach we believe we engender sisterhood, friendship and lasting
bonds as well as a love and enjoyment of the dance, be it just for
ourselves, or dancing for others.
Classes coincide with school
terms. Come join us.
