Helwa belly dance

Helwa Belly Dance is a dance school located in North Sydney, offering classes in belly dance and modern Japanese dance. Regardless of age or dance experience, anyone can start learning these dance styles at Helwa Belly Dance. The school places a strong emphasis on providing individualised instruction, ensuring that even those with no dance experience can feel confident and comfortable attending the classes.

Belly Dance is a dance form originating from the Middle Eastern countries, with Egypt being the central hub. Unlike high-impact movements like jumps, belly dance focuses on fluid and graceful motions, allowing individuals of all ages, body types, and dance backgrounds to participate. As the inner muscles are strengthened through belly dance, students can expect improvements in posture and achieve a more feminine body line. While it may take some time to grasp the movements of belly dance, with continuous practise, progress can be made regardless of previous dance experience or athletic ability.

Helwa Belly Dance is ideal for individuals looking to achieve a beautiful and healthy body, strengthen their inner muscles, attain a feminine body line, alleviate lower back pain or shoulder stiffness, reduce common female discomforts like menstrual pain or menopause symptoms, and enhance their self-expression while experiencing something out of the ordinary. The school welcomes individuals of all ages, as dancing is something that can be enjoyed regardless of how old one is. However, it is important to note that individual results may vary.

In addition to belly dance, Helwa Belly Dance also offers modern Japanese dance classes. This dance style allows individuals to express the beauty of Japan in a modern and free-spirited way. Using traditional Japanese fans combined with elements of Western dance, students can learn from a "Basara Dance” fan master specialising in Japanese fan choreography. No prior knowledge of Japanese dance or dance experience is necessary, making it accessible to everyone interested in incorporating a Japanese theme into their dancing or performances.

The belly dance classes include a foundational and introductory class suitable for beginners or those with limited belly dance experience.

This class involves slightly more advanced techniques and choreography, allowing students to work on completing a full dance routine over three to four months. Apart from Oriental-style choreography, the class also covers folkloric and Japanese fusion dance styles. Several times a year, students who are interested can participate in performance opportunities.
