Best Beginner Figure 8 - How to Belly Dance 15 Minute Class is a beginning belly dance class for getting the feel of belly dance hip figure 8's by learning 2 simple yet classic belly dance moves and variations. In this beginner belly dancing lesson, we do warm up isolations, then I teach you how to do the vertical hip figure 8, the horizontal hip figure 8, and how to vary these basic belly dance moves to gain more variety in your belly dance steps. You'll learn the best technique for doing the basic figure 8's along with some challenges of adding layers like level changes to these basic belly dance hip moves, doubling and quadrupling speed, and beginning to learn simple belly dance concepts. I show you how to isolate your figure 8 by always keeping your knees bent and how to match these simple moves to be in time with the belly dance rhythms Beledi and Chiftitelli. Finally, we learn keys to belly dancing and the definition of belly dancing. I encourage you to do our belly dance tutorials and belly dance workouts after you do this beginner belly dance class.

About JENSUYA
I began my "training" in 1973 when most of my childhood was spent overseas immersed in other cultures. In 2002, I began belly dancing with classes, workshops, self-guided study, and more travel to the Middle East. Two years later, I and my husband, musician Robert Peak (yep, our beloved Drummer Bob), founded our music and dance ensemble, TarabRaqs. Since then, we have produced and performed in hundreds of live music and belly dance shows. With honors bestowed by the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, the American Turkish Association, and two feature profiles on the U.S. Government-funded MBN, Middle East Broadcast Network, broadcasting to over 24 million viewers in the Middle East, we are on the forefront of Middle Eastern dance in America. Hamdullallah!
