Autumn updates!
Asharah
Thursday classes in Columbia, SC, canceled indefinitely.
Lack of attendance and my crazy travel schedule have made me decide to cancel my Thursday night classes. I am still teaching Suhaila Salimpour-format drills on Wednesday night at 8:15pm in Lexington, SC. But no worries! You can still come to my monthly workshops. Keep reading...
Monthly workshops in Columbia, SC!
First workshop will be November 14, 2-5pm
Yes, that’s right! In November we’ll be focusing on pure, hardcore technique for three hours. Come prepared to sweat, work, and train like a dancer as you improve your body alignment, learn safer ways to execute bellydance movement, and improve your dance! Bring your finger cymbals, just in case…
Workshops will be held from 2:00pm-5:00pm at the Center for Dance Education, ground floor of Lexington’s Old Mill, 711 E. Main Street, Lexington, SC.
If you can’t make it to this workshop, the next workshop will be from 2:00pm-5:00pm on December 12th. Registration will be posted next month.
