WORKSHOPS
Before we begin Term 1 classes, I am very pleased to offer ‘Shake up Summer’
workshops, for those who would like to wind the shimmy back up and get back
to some dancing!
Wednesday January 18th 6pm-8pm
– Improvisation and music interpretation with the gorgeous Donna.
2hrs COST $20. All levels – beginners to advanced will benefit.
Donna is a renowned bellydancer & teacher on the Sunshine Coast who has
taught bellydancing for 14 yrs and learned with the masters both in
Australia and overseas. Donna’s first bellydance teachers’ focus was on
feeling the music, as opposed to technical movements, and dancing from the
heart, which permeates through her dancing to this day. Bellydance
originated as a dance of the people. A dance of spontaneity, a social dance
where women danced for and with women. A dance of the soul and heart,
beating with the rhythm of the music. Donna is very passionate about this
aspect of the dance & feels we are losing the free spirit of bellydance. In
this workshop you will be guided to feel more comfortable with improvising.
Donna will highlight the various music styles and instruments, movements to
go with them and help connect you and the music so you become as one.
