Naia Al'Abbasi

Cast aside your picture of the skinny, scantily-clad harem girl and discover what bellydance can do for you!  Authentic Middle Eastern dance has been practiced for centuries as a celebration of real women.  The amazing thing about bellydance is that it brings women of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds together and forges an unbreakable bond of sisterhood.  You are not too fat or too skinny, too young or too old.  You are perfect for this dance!

Classes are offered for all skill levels, including a variety of specialty classes you won’t find anywhere else. We also offer performance classes as part of Malaika Middle Eastern Dance Company, a charitable dance group that performs at numerous civic events, both locally and across the region.  Student troupe members benefit from ample performance opportunities to gain confidence as dancers and to share their love and passion of the dance with their audience members.  

In basic bellydance classes we focus on fundamental skills, vocabulary, and music. It's a laid-back environment where you can choose if belly dance is right for you!  Don't be shy!  Wear whatever you like, though clothes that you can move easily in tend to be more comfortable. We look forward to seeing you soon!
