HEALTH BENEFITS
OF BELLY DANCE

  • Belly dance has been proven to be one of the best forms of movement and self-expression for the feminine body.

  • Isolating muscle groups around joints helps improve hips, legs, arms and core strength, posture, flexibility, and balance.

  • The movements accentuate hips, thighs, arms, shoulders, chest and other body parts.

  • Belly dance is a low-impact, aerobic workout that increases circulation, relieves stress and builds confidence.

  • Belly dancing chisels away unwholesome beliefs that have been learned through upbringing and/or societal influences and opens a portal for healing.
