BellyWood with Halyma

The holiday season approaches and along with it comes end of year recitals!  A few of my Belly wood ladies were able to come out last Friday to help celebrate the end of the session for my good friend, Siddiqah, of FatCatBellydance

And we had a blast!  Next up with be my own semi private OCCP – the Ottawa Centre Class Party where almost 300 of my closest Ottawa Belly dance and Bollywood friends, teachers, students and colleagues will converge on a local theatre to join me in sharing our love of dance! We are in a limited space so I cannot really open it up to the public – but if you ever want to join a class, you’ll get the chance to come play with us for sure!

Classes resume in January, so if you have a love of colourful costumes, fun music and wanna have some fun moving – even if you don’t think you would ever dance in public – check out the 2012 Class Info here!

Registration has already begun!

I had a lovely time yesterday teaching a small group at Algonquin College for their Wellness week.  First, thanks to Shakira from Kemptville for recommending me to teach the class – a supportive community is a great one to be a part of!

2nd thanks to Valerie, for welcoming me to teach Bellywood there and I think she got some fun photos – but I may not see them, small private group  But she gave me a lovely thank you gift as I was packing up…
And all of this to say, that yes, you too can have me come and teach your group for a private lesson – birthday parties, work incentive days, showers, anytime you want to get a gang moving and laughing in a multicultural setting!

Check out my pricing and packages here, and feel free to message me for more details!

Fall Specialty classes at Dovercourt are underway and the last day of the session is Monday, December 19, 2011 . Any participants to re-register once registration opens on Monday, October 24^th as all early registration for the January session will result in a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

How cool is that?

January’s classes at Dovercourt will begin Wednesday, January 11, 2012 and run for 14 weeks.  Timeslot is 7:45 to 8:45 p.m.

Keep dancing!!
