How
could you not love a dance that celebrates your feminity, keeps you fit
and is just plain fun? A touch of the exotic is coming to the
Hawkesbury and you are invited to come and join in the fun at our
regular bellydancing
classes
located in Richmond and Rouse Hill. Our class focus is on enjoying
yourself and having a laugh whilst you learn to move. Bellydance is
also a popular way to strengthen your core muscles including the pelvic
floor. This is truly an art form that can be enjoyed whatever your age,
shape or level whilst helping to reduce tension and stress and
producing a lasting feeling of physical and emotional well being.
The captivating art of Bellydance has its origins in the temples and fertility religions of the ancient world. The Dance is both a graceful and skilful form of art, while the social side of the dance unites women of all ages giving them the opportunity to feel truly feminine and express themselves in a supportive environment that crosses the boundaries of age, appearance and creed. Today, bellydance can be experienced amongst Middle Eastern women at private gatherings, community events or at public places such as restaurants.
About Kamelia...
An elegant, joyful and charismatic performer, Kamelia is a Sydney
based dancer who began her dance journey eight years ago. She
has
sought tuition from some of the most acclaimed performers the industry
has to offer both locally and abroad such as Amera Eid and Jrisi
Jusakos to name a few, as well as Yasmina of Cairo, Amani and Mohammed
Shahin. Constantly training and developing Kamelia has created a style
which is both emotive and energetic aiming to achieve a both fun and
authentic experience for her audience.
As a teacher Kamelia is warm, attentive and charismatic whilst forever encouraging students to harness and develop their own unique abilities, use safe dance practices and respect cultural contexts. Understanding of the dance and its other uses are important to her, always encouraging students to "find out more"! Love of Middle Eastern dance doesn't come just from the dance itself, but in learning about the music, culture and various styles.
After recently giving birth to her first child in September 2010, Kamelia has returned in 2011 as a new member of the acclaimed Hathor Dance Theatre and to take care of Hipnotyze School of Bellydance in the place of Peta, to continue to spread her love of Middle Eastern dance throughout the far reaches of Sydney.
