Meet Angelique
Angelique began bellydance in 1997 as a way to add a little more "feminine" to her "masculine" world of Computer Science and Martial Arts. What began as a fun, creative outlet quickly became a passion that led her into the classrooms of the top teachers in the world. In her commitment to represent this cultural dance with the integrity it deserves, Angelique has and continues to train with master source teacher and through this work has developed a deep understanding of the movement, music, history, and cultural significance of the art form. Angelique is an authorized instructor in the prestigious Salimpour School of Dance and brings her wealth of knowledge to the stage as well as classroom.

I've never danced before. Will I be ok in your class?Absolutely! The majority of my students have not only never belly danced before, but have no dance training at all. I offer clear breakdown of movement, and I assume I will have some beginners in my Level 1 classes. I tailor the movement to the student, so everyone can learn at their own pace and capability.
-
I have bellydance experience. Will your class be right for me?The level 2/3 class may be the right fit for you, but because I teach primarily in the Salimpour vocabulary, you should check with me first to see where the best placement is for you to start. My student body ranges from those with no experience, to professional level dancers with 20 years experience. There is something for everyone in my classes. :-)
-
What should I wear?Anything that you would wear to a regular workout class. This is a legitimate dance class and you will work hard and get sweaty. Most of us wear leggings and a tank top, but you are fee to wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Please note, we do not wear hip scarves with coins as it can be distracting in a classroom setting. Dance shoes may be worn.
