February 6, 2010: Bellyesque with Megan Hartmann
Floored on Grand

St. Louis, MO
$25 for one class/$40 for both.
12:00-2:00 PM
Bellyesque Basics (Beginner)
This workshop begins with a stretching warm-up and conditioning exercises that target key muscle groups used in belly dance – specifically, the glutes, thighs, and abs. Basic belly dance movements are then broken down muscularly and drilled to establish muscle memory. The workshop will end with some short bellyesque-themed combinations to demonstrate how one can fuse the two dance styles.
3:00-5:00 PM
Bellyesque Choreography (Intermediate)
Students will learn a practical application of movements learned in the Bellyesque Basics workshop. This slow, sultry choreography challenges students to represent subtle sensuality to an audience as opposed to more overt sexuality. Belly dance movements are reinterpreted to become something distinctly burlesque. Students will learn a complete piece that is stage-ready.
