:dance: I'm so excited because I am finally taking belly dance courses. No more DVDs for me! :lol:
I'm taking the basic beginner course with Chryssanthi Sahar in Heidelberg, Germany. She is super friendly, open, and really knowledgeable. I'm also taking the Tribal Fusion class that is taught by her daughter, Lydia Salome, who also has a really great vibe. If anyone lives in Germany and is close to HD I say go with Studio Kinisis.
The classes have a good set up too. A nice warm up, basic moves & techniques that will eventually lead into dances/choreography, and classes are small enough to get personal time with the teacher. I have to say I am glad I have a strong core and a flexible body from my pole dancing... totally helps with the stretches and movements we do. Not to say that belly dance is easy but the two dances actually really compliment each other in terms of the strength & stretch workouts you get out of them.
So I just wanted to thank you guys since I got the recommendation from this forum to go with Chryssanthi. I look forward to dancing in her class shows in a couple of years. Wish me luck. hehehe
