What we need from you:
- Full commitment to your class: We can promise you that your dance will develop beyond your expectation if you can commit to your class. Committing
to your weekly dance-practice will bring more then just
dance-development, it will create a sense of peace between you and your
body, allowing you access to the depths of bellydance beyond the
surface of look and style...
Practice outside of class: Even if only for 5 minutes a day, shimmy while
brushing your teeth, stretching while talking on the phone, rolling your belly while standing on the subway platform...If you can put a little effort into your dance when you are away from class, your development will increase much faster, and so will your sense of inner alignment with your body and emotions regarding your body.
- Patience with yourself: Each week of class will present new challenges. You are full of courage and humility to walk through the studio door to become a student. You will receive the most for your investment when you release your expectations, and allow yourself time to learn and grow at your own speed.
- Support and love for fellow dancers: We take pride in being a large community of primarily women, with little to no drama. We consciously leave our baggage behind us when we step onto our dance floor. We seek community, support, and friendship amongst each other. Competitiveness and caddiness is not welcome.
- Please read the class etiquette page.
-
Sign up for class in advance:
- Send an email to info@boldbellydance.com: Request Class day(s) and time(s).
- Wait to hear a confirmation back (usually within 48 hours).
- If the class is full, we will try our best to find the next best class for you.
- New students will be asked to pay through PayPal (use info@boldbellydance.com) or send a check to:
Bold Bellydance, LLC
68 West 39th Street, 3rd Floor
New York, NY 10018
- Returning students are required to notify the studio that they are continuing enrollment. Otherwise, their place may be given to someone else.
- Important: Please do not confirm your place in the class unless you are serious about taking this class.
- Once classes begin, there will be NO refunds, as others may be turned away due to space limitations, but remember you can make up missed classes. See details below.

Why don't we don't offer drop-ins?
If you really want to learn to dance, we need to know that you are committed. Taking a class every other week, or only when you feel like it will not yield the same growth and experience as committing to a class, and a group of people who are also committed. Your teacher has a session planned so that she can guide you to each next step, and you are allowed to grow and evolve as a dancer. Remember, if you need to miss a class, you have many opportunities to make up your missed class.
