Intensive: Belly Dance for Body Acceptance and Healing (12-weeks)

Price range: $195.00 through $305.00

12-week intensive begins January 31st

Belly Dance for Body Acceptance and Healing is a transformative journey designed to help participants reconnect with their bodies, release shame and self-judgment, and rediscover the joy of moving with self-love.

Rooted in the soulful art of Raqs Sharqi (commonly known as Belly Dance), this course blends movement technique, choreography, mindfulness, emotional exploration, and community support to cultivate a more compassionate and empowering relationship with the body.

Each week includes gentle dance practices, guided meditations, reflective journaling, and supportive discussions. Together, we’ll explore how embodied movement can shift long-held self-perceptions, awaken physical pleasure, and create space for healing.

Whether you’re new to dance or experienced, this course offers a welcoming space to move, feel, reflect, and grow. All bodies, ages, identities, and backgrounds are welcome. Students are recommended to keep a journal over the course of the intensive.

Come as you are. Leave feeling more confident, connected, and at home in your body.
