- Hips Lips Swords Power Apr 2025 (all)

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.
