BEGINNER FOUNDATIONS COURSE DETAILS

These short Foundation Bellydance courses are inspired by the desire to share this ancient practice from the intentional place of its roots; which is to Celebrate, Honour, Envoke and Embody the Power of the Feminine.

These beginner courses have been created with 6 core components in mind:

- Foundational Bellydance Technique

- Heart-Body Attunement

- Intuitive Sensual Movement

- Creative Dance Flow

- Joyful Self-Loving Acceptance

- Sacred Sisterhood Connection

This course is an holistic approach to learning bellydance. Each woman is invited and welcomed into a safe, non-competitive environment to connect more deeply to the powerful feminine energy within ourselves and our sisters.

Each class begins with taking time to slow down, drop into our bodies and open to receive the magic and the wisdom sacred (intentional) feminine movement has to offer us.

Over the term, teachings will range from technique focused to more relaxed practices that allow students to embody the shapes, flow, sensuality and power of this dance from an intuitive place.

We will also enjoy learning and playing with putting moves together in different ways, to allow each student to find these movement patterns naturally when freestyling, inside or outside of class.

Through embodiment practices, clear bellydance technique tutoring & drills, playful partner & grouped practices, freestyle dancing and invitations to be witnessed dancing for your fellow dance sisters in a relaxed, joyful class setting; these classes will uplift and nourish your entire being, whilst creating profoundly powerful opportunities for clearing major blockages and deep inner healing.

INTERMEDIATE COURSE DETAILS

Continuing with the 6 core components of the Beginner courses, the Intermediate courses are designed to take the experienced beginner dancer to the next level!

An holistic class of intermediate technique using drills on conditioning, singular movements, patterns and combo's to hone your skills.

Teasing our edges and moving into a more refined and embodied expression of this dance through layering, speed and various techniques that invite the dancer into a deeper level of connection to her sacral centre and sensual serpentine flow.

ABOUT MALIKA & FUSION BELLYDANCE

This contemporary expression of Bellydance is powerful, sensual and mesmerising. With slow snake-like movements and hypnotising hip rhythms, gateways to healing are opened through sacral activation and embodied presence.

Bellydance invites one in to the delicious realms of femininity & sensuality, enabling deeper attunement to the inner landscape and the language of the body. These movements can be a tool to one’s embodiment journey as the polarity between flow and discipline, feminine and masculine, play out in each dancer.

Having journeyed deep into the underworld of her own shadows, Malika’s movement experience expands beyond linear knowledge and the 11+ years she’s been bellydancing.

After decades living in a paralytic fear of being seen, overwhelming shame and total disconnection from the heart and body, Malika found her way onto a deep healing path which immediately became intricately entwined with her Bellydance journey.

Malika's experience in trauma and mental health have inspired her gentle & compassionate facilitating style; and her devotion to personal evolution via presence & embodiment is woven throughout her Bellydance offerings.

Malika utilizes her deep connection to music, rhythm & the energetics of sound to create a mindfully curated musical journey of neo-beats that is in synch with each of her unique expressions of the dance.
