Thank
you for your interest in Barefoot Bellydance. The dance school is run by
Steffi,
who, along with fellow tutor Deadre, welcome you to the
classes.
The
philosophy of the school is that people only exercise regularly when
it ceases to become a chore. By keeping the atmosphere light and fun,
and by developing friendships and a sense of community, dancers no longer
feel they have to come to class to 'work out' but rather to enjoy themselves.
|
Although
our preferred performance style is Tribal, through the dance classes, we
offer many other styles of bellydance.
Our
classical classes offer the opportunity to learn choreographies and a
broad spectrum of bellydance traditions
If
you like to learn Barefoot performance style we offer tribal classes for
all levels. |

Tribal
Grade 1 Certification Course
- Tribal
dance uses simple moves, executed with precision, combined with
specific styling and posture. We have designed this course to
enable the dancer to measure their competence in Level 1 tribal
moves as used by Barefoot Bellydance and demonstrated in the
Barefoot Level 1 teaching DVD.

If
you are not contacted before the start of the class, please assume you
have a place. If you require confirmation or a receipt, please enclose
a stamped addressed envelope with your registration
form
Barefoot
Bellydance reserve the right to cancel any class if there are not sufficient
people booked. In case of cancellation, you will be contacted with as
much notice as possible, and may choose to transfer to another class
of receive a full refund.
No
refunds are available if you cancel a reserved place. No places will
be reserved without full payment.
|
Bellydance
is practiced in bare feet. Please come in loose comfortable clothing,
anything you are happy wearing. If you want to wear a flowing skirt,
and have any scarves that can be used to emphasise the size of your
hips, then please feel free to bring these, but many beginners feel
happiest in leggings and T-shirt. There will be plenty of opportunity
to purchase music, props and costumes as you get more confident.
Classes
are run in 6 week courses and cost £45 per course. Courses run
from September to July. Please ring or email Steffi
for information on
dates and registration forms. |
Classes are popular and spaces are limited.
To guarantee a place it is necessary to book and pay in advance. You
may turn up and pay on week 1, but if the class is full you will not
get a place. We operate a waiting list for oversubscribed classes.
|
|
You
may prefer to take up Barefoot membership at a cost of £35 per
month paid by direct debit. This will allow you to attend as many classes
as you wish at no extra cost as long as you book your place in advance.
Please contact Steffi or ask one of your tutors to take up this option. |

We
also encourage any student who wishes to perform to become a dancer
with Anuket, our student troupe.
Anuket
is directed by Steffi
and Deadre, and performs at local events, such as Fetes and Fundraisers.
Students of all levels from complete beginner upwards are welcome
to join. The only criteria is a commitment to come and develop yourself
in the dance, and attend rehearsals regularly. If you do join, you will
find that your confidence will grow along with your strength, flexibility
and skill.

Steffi
also directs Barefoot Bellydance who perform with their own live
band. Barefoot perform at festivals and events nationwide, and as far
as we are aware we are the only bellydance troupe in the UK that
perform exclusively to live music created by our Barefoot Band.
