Our intent is to have fun and enjoy dancing together! We have students that range anywhere between 10-70 years young! And the levels span from very beginning dancers to intermediate/advanced. Our styles encompass mostly American Cabaret/Egyptian-Style Belly Dance and Fusion. We focus on learning isolations, short combos and group choreography. We also teach you how to use dance props like veils, zills, canes, or swords to apply to any style of belly dance!! No dance experience necessary just a desire to learn! And the Goddess Studio has hip scarves and veils for you to enjoy too, if you don't have any yet!

Important Please Note:

~ Classes are on-going but subject to change!

~ Please EMAIL Amalya to get the ADDRESS & FRONT GATE CODE to the Goddess Studio as well as to confirm schedule and RSVP to class. AmalyaGoddess@aol.com
