Itinerary:

Prerequisite: Rhonda's 12-Week Beginner Belly Dance Class

We will choose a song and develop a choreography together. Note that what makes this an "Epic" choreography is that we'll choose a longer song with more varied sections (ie. perhaps a regular section and a tabla section in one song).

Note that I (Rhonda) also recommend the following teachers in Calgary:

- Jamilee Abir: Raqs Sharqi, Ethnic/Historical, Westernized Nightclub, Veil, Balancing, Finger Cymbals, Cane, Shamadan
- Hadia: Raqs Sharqi, Veil, Balancing, Ethno-Fusion, Finger Cymbals, Cane
- Despina: Traditional Greek technique (phone number available upon request - e-mail me at pres@calgaryoutdoorclub.com)
- Leila: Egyptian style and sword dance.

Guests (non-members) may attend with special permission. Please e-mail me to discuss.

Required Items to Bring:
- Water
- Hip scarf

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

- long loose skirt or leggings
- halter or tank top
- sandals (or light shoes) if you want them - the floor is FILTHY! Be aware, though, that much of the hip movement in hula is facilitated through the feet, so whatever you're wearing on your feet must be VERY flexible. If you don't want to go barefoot, I recommend very light/flexible sandals.
- Yoga mat (or other excercise mat) to protect your skin and clothing from said FILTHY floor while we're doing strength exercises and stretches.

Event Directions:

4303 Varsity Drive NW
From the entrance, come down the stairs, then go straight down the hall, through the set of doors to the very end and down the set of three small stairs to get to the dance studio.
