Park on the left side of their lot as you make get blocked in if you're on the right side and they have to respond to a fire. Enter through the door to the far right and go up the stairs. |
| Choosing an Instructor Where did you learn to dance? It's best if they learned from a good technical dancer and continue to master they skills of belly dance by attending workshops given by nationally recognized dancers. How long have you been dancing? This doesn't always tell you how good a dancer is, but if they haven't been dancing long at all, they probably have not mastered the dance enough to teach it correctly. Who were your teachers? The better their teachers, they better they're likely to be. Those who learned from a good technical dancer are likely to have good dance habits, which she will pass along to you! What style of belly dance do you teach? Make sure you're learning the type of belly dance that you want to learn. In this area, I only know of teachers teaching tribal fusion and cabaret, although there may be instructors I'm not aware of. Do you have a student troupe? This is only relevant if you want to perform, of course. The most important way to choose an instructor is to watch performances by different instructors and pick the one you're drawn to. Then ask to sit in on a class to see if you like their teaching style. |
