A dancer's sword is a symbol of strength and grace that can turn a move into magic. It is a dance partner and an extension of your artistry, used to highlight your isolations, accentuate the lines of your body, and trace mesmerizing patterns in the air. Instructor Angie Never will help you explore the possibilities, using improvisational and modern fusion bellydance as our primary movement vocabulary. We'll practice balancing, leveling, turning, and more to give you the skillset you need to show off both the sword and your own personal power. Please bring your own balanced bellydance sword with a non-battle ready edge. You are most likely to succeed in this class if you have one year of dance experience and one year of training in improvisational group bellydance, such as Fat Chance Belly Dance style. This class is taught from a Body Positive perspective. We will operate from the assumption that all bodies are awesome bodies, and it's our job to figure out all the cool stuff they can do. Choose to register for the whole month for a discount or pick classes individually. This class is available in person at Sacred Shimmy Studio, live on Zoom, or on demand via recording. Please indicate when you register whether you plan to attend in person or online. All classes are recorded, and all participants will have access to the recordings after class.

This class is a gentle invitation to explore dance as meditation, guided not by imitation but by inner wisdom. Rooted in the belief that every body holds its own rhythm and story, Intuitive Bellydance for Curious Bodies offers a space where dancers can move with curiosity, care, and autonomy. This is a practice of presence. Rather than prescribing steps, I will offer foundational shapes, floor patterns, and subtle dance theory as tools for exploration—not rules to follow. You’ll be encouraged to experiment, play, and discover movement that feels nourishing to you. This is a practice of listening to your body and instincts to find magic in your movement. Designed for people of all shapes, sizes, ages, and experience levels, this class honors your pace, your process, and your power. Come as you are, and connect with your body, your creativity, and the powerful rhythms within. This class is available in person and online via Zoom. To protect the container of the process, on demand class recordings will not be offered. Columbus, Ohio
