Suhaila Format

These classes are designed to teach dancers necessary skills, technique and terminology to develop organic movement, to move forward in dance and create their own expression through bellydance.

Folkloric Fusion™

Folkloric Fusion™ classes introduce you to cultural stylizations, fun finger cymbal patterns, and the diverse range of music and cultures from around the Middle East, North Africa, and the Turkish peninsula.

Jamila Format

The Jamila Salimpour™ format is vintage bellydance; the basis for both American classical cabaret and traditional tribal. It was the inspiration and foundation of what later became known as American Tribal Style.
