Did you know that belly dance activates your deep core muscle even more effectively than traditional crunches?

Undulations, chest circles and belly dance isolations train your core for real-life activities like bending, twisting, and lifting, making it a practical workout (and beautiful too)!

Movements like figure eights and hip circles help mobilize the spine and strengthen core muscles, reducing the risk of back pain and stiffness and encouraging flexibility.

Strengthen your abdominals and get an amazing all over body workout without ever getting on the floor or even going to the gym!

Let’s dance!
