Belly Dancing has tremendous grace and emotional appeal and, unlike many dance forms, it is suitable for women of every age and every shape.

Using all the muscle groups in the body, when women unlock their hips and arms a tremendous release of power is unleashed. A unique and exciting way of keeping fit and building self-confidence.

The ancient Greeks were very aware of the body-mind connection, which is why both were equally emphasized. Emotions must be expressed through the body, otherwise we run the risk of becoming very ill, mentally or physically.


	Andrew Weil, M.D., one of America's cutting edge holistic doctors, recently had this to say about belly dancing: "Belly dancing has now emerged as one of the hot new exercise trends according to the American Council on Exercise. It has evolved from traditional forms to heart-pumping workouts seen in gyms across the country. Belly Dancing can be soft on the joints and at the same time highly energetic, working muscles that most people don't use with regular workouts. It's a great opportunity for people to learn about the music and traditions of unfamiliar countries and cultures. It can give your body a beautiful shape and be an excellent alternative for people who don't like to run, bike or go to the gym".
