What should I wear to class? Wear comfortable clothing - something that you can easily move in. Yoga pants and a crop top are acceptable as is a t-shirt and shorts. We dance bear foot but you may wear socks, ballet slippers or other flexible footwear if you wish.

Do I have to show my belly? You do not have to wear something that shows your belly if you don't want to. Even though there is a lot of emphasis on the belly and the core muscles, it is a misconception that you have to show your belly when you belly dance.

So, do I have to wear a costume for class? No, you don't have to wear a costume to class. Hip belts are not necessary, and we prefer cloth over coin belts due to it can be very loud and the teacher has to talk over the coin noise. You can also purchase class/show wear from the studio store located just past the mirrors in the studio.

Can I bring a friend? You may bring other friends that wish to join in the fun of the class. We do ask that non class parties wait for the dancers outside so the other dancers in the class will not be uncomfortable while they are practicing their art forms.
