Hello everyone!
Just found this site and it seems brilliant! I come from Finland and have been belly dancing for six years now. It is really addictive and makes you just want to learn more and more. I have been dancing in few different dance school having several different teachers. I've been dancing since I was 10 years old but for the last six years been just concentrating on belly dancing.
My first years of belly dancing I danced in a dance school that wasn't keen on techniques but just learning your own way of dancing and having fun. It was a good way to start but I think I've enjoyed more my recent dance school where we concentrate a lot in technique as well as just dancing. We also perform yearly.
I am moving to Manchester (UK) next year and am desperate to find a good dance school there. We have 5 levels in our dance school system and I'm dancing on the level 4 at the moment. It just seems to be really hard to find any dance schools in Manchester that give lessons for people who feel ambitious about dancing. Lot of the dance schools seem to give mainly lessons for the beginners and the other half seems to concentrate on Gypsy dancing or Fusion and the other new dance styles. I'd like to study traditional Egyptian and/or Turkish belly dancing like Raqs sharqi, balady... If anyone knows any places in Manchester that are good for learning more belly dancing I'd be really really grateful!!!
