Helene has been dancing for over twenty years and has danced with many troupes. She began the very first belly dance school in Maryborough in 1999 and has since seen many of her students become professional dancers and/or begin their own businesses.
Helene is skilled as a fully trained teacher, and she is trained in safe Dance practise, dance teaching methodologies and innovative dance practise. Helene choreographs all her own dances or adapts dances from the many international and Austalian teachers she learns from.
You will learn how to shimmy, how to move and control all parts of your body, and you will tap into your own creativity and personal power. Belly Dance is fun and empowering for all women, all ages, all shapes, and sizes.
You will leave classes energised, positive and uplifted and as you learn your body will feel the benefit of the gentle movements. Belly dance is low impact, gentle on your body and uses every muscle group. The music is hauntingly beautiful, and you will be transported into another land and another part of your being.
In this course you will learn all the basics of bellydance. There is no requirement to perform your dance unless you wish to continue on later into the performance troupe class. This comprises the Havena Divas which is a more advanced class. It focusses on learning dances to perform in front of the many audiences that follow this experienced bellydance troupe.
Wear bike pants or a flowing skirt not sweatpants or jeans. You will need to move and be flexible in your clothing. No shoes required. Just bring a water bottle, a scarf, or hip belt to wear on your hips, a positive attitude and a sense of humour as the classes are fun!!
Feel free to call Helene if you have any more queries.
To learn the huge repertoire of dances created by Havena Belly Dance come on Monday night at 5p. m. Dance for an hour and learn some superb Middle Eastern choreographies.
