Instruction

Belly dancing is for ALL WOMEN.
All ages, sizes, shapes, dance abilities & backgrounds are welcome!
Experience what belly dancing offers:
- Conditioning of core muscles,
- Better flexibility,
- Stress release and relaxation,
- Gracious understanding and acceptance of your feminine body and nature,
- Freedom of expression, and
- Sisterhood with other women learning this ancient art form that was MADE for our bodies.
My instruction is body centered; focusing on teaching proper technique as well as helping dancers understand movements from inside-out. You know, what the movements feel like in the muscles of your body. It is also heart centered. I use class time for women to share in the camaraderie of belly dancing as they gain the confidence to freely express themselves in class activities. By creating a non-competitive, fun yet focused learning environment, I help women feel comfortable from the moment they enter my studio. Many of my students have been dancing with me for several years.
Testimonial:
“Sheila Kelly has been my belly dance teacher for a couple of months now. I initially thought it would be fun, but what I have gotten from the class has been above and beyond my expectations. First of all Sheila is a fantastic instructor. She breaks it down so I get it. Second, belly dancing provides a community of women and a connection with my own body that are deep needs of mine. Third, Belly Dancing is a fantastic workout. My body is toning up. Problem areas in my shoulder, core and low back are starting to correct. My posture is improving and I am more grounded in my body at all times. Last of all – it is fun. It seems like there is never enough fun in our lives anymore. I highly recommend Sheila’s class to all women!!”
