a thorough explanation and demonstration. We then move onto learning the latest choreograhpy, styles include: Arabic Pop, Shaabi, Modern Egyptian, Classical Egyptian 
and Fusion. 

Another aspect of Diva Bellydance is 'Dancing with Props' training and development;  
Isis Wings, Fan Veils, Veil Poi, Sword, Cane and Zills. 

Dancer Development with Diva Bellydance :
Diva Bellydance encourages each student to actively develop their own unique dance style and at their own pace, building upon the strong Diva Bellydance foundations (correct postural alignment and dance move techinques, understanding of Arabic rhythms and musical intrepretation), encouraging confident and expressive dancers.

Diva Bellydance Instructors
Kathryn : Senior Instructor (and founder)

Bio: I began teaching bellydance in 2003, as I wanted to share my love, knowledge and experience with others. I have spent over 12 years studying Egyptian style (Modern, Classical, Folk etc) with various teachers from all over the world, and I openly share everything I have learnt over the years.  I have performed at numerous gigs over the years, live musicians, on stage, restaurants, informal and formal venues, as such I share this invaluable knowledge with all my students, mentoring those in particular who wish to become professional bellydancers.

I am a great believer in the 'freedom to express yourself', music and movement can have such a powerful effect on the human psyche, if the music tells you to dance, then dance.    

I feel it is vital that my classes have a community feel, sense of fun and enjoyment,
after all, what better way is there to learn...than through laughter! 

Not only can I teach you how to dance, but over time I can help build up your confidence and empower you. So why not join me at Diva Bellydance, where I can help you Release your Inner Diva! 

So drop me a line at bellydancer@btinternet.com and we can begin this exciting new journey together.




Shirley: Instructor
Bio: I began my dance journey with Kathryn back in 2008, and I soon fell in love with this beautiful dance form. Kathryn introduced me to the wonder of Isis Wings for a group choreography, since then I have been hooked! I have written and performed numerous choreographies and solo's...Isis wings are my specialty. 

After many years training and performing with Kathryn, I 
naturally progressed to coaching and teaching others in class, with support from Kathryn to develop my dance instructor skills further.
My nursing and education / training background is invaluable when teaching beginners as this enables  me to deliver clear instructions on how a move is generated anatomically,  ensuring safe technique. With my guidance and support new dancers soon master the key moves within a short space of time. 

I find it incredibly rewarding helping new dancers blossom, watching their confidence grow, even more so when they get the  'light bulb' moments. 

Bellydance has given me creative freedom and life long friends, so join us on this special journey, I cant wait to meet  you.

live, laugh and dance
