Finally, cool breezes mean Fall is on the way!
Dear Dance and Music Friends,
After a fantastic summer, I am ready to get going on all of the exciting events and classes for Fall 2011! All of the current and new classes are located at the new and fabulous Studio Zahiya at 90 1/2 Lexington Avenue. It is a fantastic space with belly dance classes by Mahsati, Lisa, and Sparrow, yoga with Alex Moody, Groove with Leanna Joyner, pilates with Alexis Miller and even more great workshops and instructors. My new group class topics are listed below. In addition to the regular group classes and new classes on history and conditioning, I also have a couple of openings for private classes and individual study and mentoring. If you are interested in more information, please let me know.
Happy Dancing! ~Mahsati~ |

New Class Topics begin in September!
Weekly History and Conditioning Classes
Drop In: $5
Monday, 7:00-7:25 pm: Practice for Better Belly Dance
Wednesday, 7:00-7:25 pm: Practice for Better Belly Dance
History and Dance Conditioning
No experience necessary. These classes alternate between learning history and styles and practicing conditioning and strengthening for dance. These brief classes will help you to better understand the roots of this dance and to prepare to execute your movements with more strength, control, and flexibility.
Weekly Group Dance Classes
Drop In: $15
Monday, 7:30-9 pm: Belly Dance Level 1
Technique Drills and Finger Cymbals
We'll be taking an in depth look at the movement quality and technique to make your movements really shine. The technique and combination drills in this session are focused to improve each family of dance movements. In addition to our focus on technique, we will also be learning the art of playing finger cymbals. Called sagat, zills, zang, and many other names, these are the little cymbals worn on the thumb and middle finger's of many belly dancers.
Wednesday, 7:30-9 pm: Belly Dance Level 2
Building Combinations and Dancing in Different Styles
Now that you have the basic techniques down and want to start developing your style or learning more about different styles, it is time to start working on building combinations and identifying the stylistic accents that make these dance movements so versatile. We will be delving into the style questions and working on pieces in multiple styles.
Belly Dance I and II are both open enrollment classes, so no pre-registration is necessary and drop-in students are welcome to begin at any time. The cost is $15 per class for single classes or discounted class cards are available in 5 class ($65), 10 class ($120), and 20 class ($220). These cards are valid for one year from date of purchase. There are no refunds for unused classes left on your card except in emergency/special cases as determined by the instructor.
For all classes, if class is canceled for any reason, the topic will be carried over to the next week and the topic dates either will be extended by one week or a make-up class will be scheduled.
