Elegant and Powerful
Arms and Hands
Your complete guide to dancing with stronger, more graceful and more intentional arms and hands.
Are you sometimes confused or unsure of what to do with your arms when you are drilling or dancing?
Have you ever gotten a performance video back only to wonder what the heck you were thinking about (or not thinking about!) with your arm posture?
You are totally not alone.
Bellydancers around the world agree that while arms and hands are an essential and beautiful part of our dance, they are often glossed over or even ignored in many belly dance classes.
The result?
Confusion and uncertainty among dancers about what to do with their arms and hands and performances that lack the polish, dynamism and framing that thoughtful arm work can provide.

Brand new to belly dance and wanting to have beautifully polished arm and hand movements right from the start
or
A more seasoned dancer who wants to create more strength, grace, and creativity in their arm work

"I tend to think of things technically and appreciate when your “engineering brain” explains the technique. And today’s class allowed me to get more expressive with my arms - something I haven’t yet done in the 18 months I’ve been dancing."
- Sarina
I have dabbled in this beautiful dance for year's but just wasn't able to grasp it, but now I'm really feeling connected to my body and I don't mind watching myself in the mirror! So thank you so much.
