Bellydance Beyond Beginners: Sweet Saidi with Stick (صعيدى)

A cute pop choreography to a light-hearted song, from a Lebanese artist in Upper Egyptian style. Swing your stick with style! Blending Levantine flair and flirtiness with Egyptian earthiness, this routine offers a perfect intro to Saidi for those who’ve never done it before; or an enjoyable change of approach for those who’ve learned more masculine Saidi stylings in the past. There will be performance opportunities down the track.

Please bring a bellydance stick if you have one. If you don’t yet, we will advise what to buy.

EXPERIENCE LEVEL: Minimum 1 year. This class is not suitable for beginners. You’re expected to be familiar and confident with all the basic moves of bellydance, as taught in our Bellydance Fundamentals Technique course, as well as putting them into combos. Moves like shimmies, hip drops and circles will not be broken down and explained. More advanced dancers are very welcome and can expect to be challenged!

Catch-up options: This course is held Tuesday in Broadway, Wednesday in Eastwood & Zoom, and Thursday in Parramatta. Catch up missed classes by attending another location, Zooming in, or using the recording. Enrolled students may request access to the recordings to practice or catch up.

Pricing: 10 classes $180 in person. A discounted Zoom option is available on Wednesdays if you can’t make it in person.

We'll email you when spaces come up, or bookings are open for next term. To receive a text as well, use the form at the bottom of the page.
