About the Tribal Bellydance class:

We start with the basics taken from the Fat Chance Bellydance format and build from there, one shimmy at a time!

By drilling the basic steps in fun combinations, you will be dancing by the end of your first class.

Covering slow and fast steps, focus is on improving technique, posture and body awareness, building strength, muscle control and coordination.

You are welcome to join the classes at any time as each week new steps are introduced and other steps reviewed, making it easy to catch up.

All classes start with a 10 - 15 minute warm up. Please make sure to arrive 5 minutes before class to ensure that you don't miss out on this important step. If you do arrive late, please take the time to warm up and stretch on your own.

What to Wear?

For your comfort and ease of movement, please wear either tights or leggings or a full skirt with tights underneath or pantaloons. A hip scarf or tribal belt, if you have one, is also advised.

We dance bare foot.

What to Bring?

Water

Zills (if you have them)

Your smiles!

A friend!

Next!

So there I was, in Paharganj, Delhi, in all it's filth, sleaze, junkie, tout infested glory, having just bitten into my last Indian delicacy. I'd had my eye on

Chennai to Bangalore

Will there ever be a time when I can look at a blank screen/page and not be overwhelmed by where and how to begin? What to tell and what to omit? What to save for teatime stories on the couch? A singing nun once said

The Inaugural 'Spark Up'

As part of my commitment to sharing my two great passions, I will be hosting free, monthly workshops in either spinning poi or tribal bellydance.
The aim is simple.

Part 2...Varanasi

Next stop, Varanasi. What a funny, mad place. Arriving in Varanasi felt like arriving in India. Everything I'd ever been told about India, I managed to see here in just a few short days.

The Beginning...

Ok, so here I am in Bangalore, 3 months into my trip, I've maybe written 2 emails since departure and folks are starting to wonder what on earth I've been up to.

Sparklegirl Hits the Road for 2008!

This year I've been inspired to get on the road and take the opportunity to further explore a world of ancient and contemporary
