Belly Dance Fitness with Sonia

Ages 16+

Join us for an up-tempo workout that incorporates the various styles of belly dancing. Have fun while toning muscles, improving posture, increasing mobility, and gaining a sense of well-being in all sorts of new ways, Contrary to its name, the dance focuses on more muscles groups than just the belly to include the abdomen, pelvis, trunk, spine, and neck. Muscles in the legs are also used to keep the dancer balanced while the arms and upper back muscles are engaged through various arm movements. While you’ll practice authentic moves, the main focus is staying in motion rather than perfecting technique. The class will flow from low impact movements which include standing abdominal and hip exercises, to faster cardio ones. Come and get your Shimmy on!
