From the end of August onwards, our theme will be classical Raqs Sharqi, the jewel in the crown of any self respecting belly dancer! The type of movements reflect the music: expansive use of space and body line and varied qualities of movements ranging from powerful to refined through which the dancer can express the rhythm and 'feel' of the melodies. With many different rhythm changes within one piece of music, you're sure to recognise some of the rhythms we've been studying this summer at ZeoT Zürich.
Don't forget that regular classes will take a one week break from the 22nd August. However there's no need to sit at home twiddling your thumbs - join one of the exciting daytime or evening workshops with our talented guest dancers.
We are looking forward to seeing many faces at the opening of our new photo exhibition with Michael Baxter (plus studio show) and are happy to announce that as of KP5 we will be offering a special discounted student abo (details in newsletter).
ALIA & the ZeoT team are looking forward to dancing with you in KP5

DANCE FIT WORKOUT
Get ready to hit the dance floor! Dancing is a whole-body workout that's actually fun. It's good for your heart, it makes you stronger, and it will help with balance and coordination. This Dance-Fit Workout features the science of interval training combined with dance choreography and strength training. The class is designed to give you the chance to get a full body aerobic workout and interval training plus perform strength and flexibility exercises.....and dance!!! A 30-minute dance class burns between 130 and 250 calories, about the same as jogging....and we'll be doing 50 minutes! Imagine that!
We will lead you through a series of choreographed steps. The focus might be on the footwork, or leaps, turns, shimmies, and cha-chas.....rest assured, whatever the focus it will engage the entire body.....you never know what we will be doing....just be sure you will get a really great workout!
