Newcastle Bellydance: Advance Bookings for Term 1, 2026 (Feb -March)

with Tara Yasmin, Tuesdays 3 Feb - 31 March 2026 (9 weeks)

Newcastle Studio

FOR OUR CURRNET STUDENTS TO BOOK YOUR PLACE before we open to the public!

This term you can choose from 2 different courses. They are complementary: take both, double your fun and learning, and receive $80 discount! Or choose the one which appeals most. Both are open to beginners as well as more experienced dancers.

6.30pm Moves and Musicality:
A structured course to improve your bellydance moves like shimmies, hip drops, circles and eights; plus how to match them to music and “free dance”. It's our signature course, and it's perfect both for absolute beginners and for dancers with some experience who want to deepen and improve their technique.

7.30pm Veil Choreography:
The veil is a beautiful, elegant and feminine bellydance prop that also gives your arms and shoulders a great workout! Learn to float, wrap, swoosh and more. As well as manipulating the veil for dynamic effects, you’ll also discover how it can frame you and be the backdrop to enhance other bellydance movements. You’ll put it all together onto a song that spans Arabic, Turkish and Persian cultures: each language has its own version!
Choreography helps you understand the dance better by seeing how movements fit to various kinds of music, how they connect together into phrases, and how we can use space. It builds your memory and consolidates your skills.

Pricing: 9 classes $165 per person. Take BOTH courses (6.30 & 7.30pm) and learn twice as fast! Discount applies automatically at checkout.

Remember we also offer ZOOM courses on bellydance, toga and World Dance.
