Come on a journey of discovery, experiencing the playful, grounding, empowering, uplifting, community-centered 'tribe' feel of this style of dance.  Meet other women in a community-based atmosphere.  Work with breath, stretch, bring focus and time for the mind to change direction, let go of expectations, and getting it 'right'. Open up to your capacity for creativity and joy through dance. 

Looking for an inclusive and supportive dance space centred on community, and connection? Explore the world fusion style of Global Caravan Tribal Bellydance (R), inspired by dance from the Middle East, India, and Spain together with modern contemporary dance elements.  

​

Each session provides a taster into this synchronized group-based, improvisational style (a conversation that everyone can join in), using music from around the globe from more traditional, to fusion and contemporary, modern music.  Feel the beat, move your feet, have fun, laugh, and discover some of the foundations and essence of this style of bellydance.   Discover what you can do, be kind to yourself. Find out how this style speaks to you.  

Move at your own pace during each session within the group setting.  All moves are broken down, explained, and chained into the next using a range of ways that support different ways of learning. There is an opportunity to adapt moves in support of mobility, fitness, and other health-related considerations.
